How else does one explain an itinerant poet finding himself laboring at a job with the Tennessee Department of Transportation, a task that required poring over and rediscovering the wonderful names of Tennessee's roads and cities? <p/>That poet was P. W. Lea, who already knew and pretty well loved (conditionally and unconditionally) many of Tennessee's magical places and names. And it was then that his poet-self saw a way to utilize this newfound knowledge, sitting down and spinning out poems and scattered prose, extolling the many virtues (and drawbacks) of these strange but wonderful places so oddly named: the highways and byways all around the Volunteer State. <p/>In the process he created a body of writings honoring these mystical roads. What follows is a sampling of that effort. Some are brief lyrical sketches, while others go into more depth, exploring Tennessee history. All may be worth reading and contemplating upon; this book might even promote a road trip of your own, to see some of these hidden treasures of our folklore and heritage.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Mr. Lea is a native Nashvillian, was educated locally and received a bachelor's degree from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.
