In this book, readers encounter the various styles of architecture that developed from 1785–1950 in the eight-county region above Carthage, Tennessee: Putnam, Fentress, Jackson, Smith, White, Overton, Dekalb, and Cumberland Counties. The authors explain how various modes of transportation influenced the region’s industries and architecture. With over ninety photographs, the book shares log houses, Gothic Revival churches, twentieth-century Craftsman homes, and more. Prominent figures like Alvin York and Cordell Hull are also remembered.
