From the first settlement of the Native Americans, through social cultural, and economic developments, the rough and tumble spirit of the frontier period, the misery of war and Reconstruction, and the aspirations of the New South, Tennessee's history comes alive. This colorful and diverse state boasts the Great Smoky Mountains, The Grand Ole Opry, Elvis, Riverboats on the Mississippi, and great cities like Chattanooga, Knoxville, Nashville and Memphis.
