Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking beyond the Highway is an examination of road history and roadside attractions specific to the South. Focused in part on numerous aspects of thematerial culture landscape of the Dixie Highway, the essays consider the politics of roadbuilding, roadside entertainment, the buildings and businesses one might encounter along the road, and regional adaptations to the needs and desires of northern tourists. Following the Dixie Highway from southern Illinois to Florida with sidetrips down other southern roads, the essays cover a wide variety of subjects, many of which will resonate with anyone who has ever lived in or vacationed in the South: Harrison Mayes's “Get Right With God” signs; the park-and-pray craze of outdoor drive-in church services; the rise and demise of brick highways; the fierce political battle over the route of the Dixie Highway; beach music and the evolution of motel architecture in Myrtle Beach; Florida's early tourist towers; and the commercial development of Tennessee caves as tourist attractions. Covering a landscape that includes Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Indiana, Virginia, Arkansas, Ohio, Kentucky, Alabama, and Illinois, the anthology shows that there was and still is a distinctive southern culture and how roads have influenced that culture. As lively as they are diverse, thearticles provide a solid background for understanding roadside ephemera that have disappeared or are quickly disappearing. Ranging from the serious to the light-hearted and including descriptions of American road and roadside icons to kitsch, the book will appeal to anyone with an interest in road history and roadside architecture.

Book excerpt: Considered one of the premier New South cities, Clarksville possesses a special history in the Volunteer State--a heritage shaped by pioneering spirits, commercial expansion, and a rich and vibrant community of many different races and creeds. Since its early days as a frontier settlement in the late 1700s, the people of Clarksville have persevered much, from inclement weather to hostile Indian raids, and their tenacity and persistence in carving a successful city along the shores of the Cumberland River have left an indelible mark on Tennessee's past and a lasting effect on its future. This volume, with over 200 black-and-white photographs, shares Clarksville's unique story through word and image, allowing readers a rare opportunity to travel back in time when the city was still growing from a frontier town into one of the state's largest cities. Clarksville serves as fitting testimony to an incredible array of local personalities, including statesmen, athletes, merchants, and teachers, and their lasting legacies, ranging from the excellent traditions of Austin Peay State University and local schools, the diverse architectural styles of the historic Downtown District and area dwellings, and the overall enthusiasm and resolve of its citizens to maintain the city and continue to work towards its improvement and evolution.

" - Foreword Reviews "Travel writer Erickson has written a travelogue about areas of the United States, including Alaska and Hawaii, that have sacred and spiritual meaning to people now and throughout history . . . Ideal for fans of Erickson’s work, curious readers, armchair travelers, and those who are compelled to take a spiritual pilgrimage." - Library Journal Globetrotting travel writer Lori Erickson has long searched for the sacred in locations and cultures far from home as well as in her beloved Iowa. But when the pandemic put both air travel and in-person worship off-limits, Lori and her husband hit the road with a camper in tow to discover spiritual sites and experiences in their own home country. From the Serpent Mound of Ohio to the Redwoods of California—and, ultimately, by air to see natural wonders in Alaska and Hawaii—Erickson uncovers deep connections both to the lands that now make up the United States and to the elements that have had sacred meaning to people throughout history and across the globe. Through her profound, informative, and witty reflections on the power of stone, water, light, fire, and more, readers will discover new destinations in North America while deepening their own connection to spirit. Whether exploring national parks or visiting holy sites, this book makes for the perfect spiritual companion and guide. Perfect for book clubs!
