Natchez Trace Parkway
Four hundred and forty-four miles from Natchez to Nashville along a route worn first by animals, then by the Natchez and Chickasaw, then by boatmen walking home upriver after selling their flatboats for lumber. No commercial traffic, no billboards, and no traffic lights on any of it. Eleven stops from an eight-acre ceremonial mound to the columns of a burned mansion, by way of the house Elvis was born in.
