Hidden History of Nashville: The Best Stories From The Tennessean's Weekly Column "Learn Nashville"

Perched on the banks of the Cumberland River, Nashville is best known for its role in the civil rights movement, world-class education and, of course, country music. In this unique collection of columns, longtime journalist and Tennessee native George Zepp illuminates a less familiar side of the city. Learn the secrets of Timothy Demonbreun, one of the cityï¿½s first residents who lived with his family in a cliff-top cave; Cortelia Clark, the blind bluesman who continued to perform on street corners after winning a Grammy award; and Nashvilleï¿½s own Cinderella story, which involved legendary radio personality Edgar Bergen and his ventriloquist protï¿½gï¿½. Cleverly rendered, using questions from readers across the nation, these little-known tales abound with Music City mystery and charm.
