- Synopsis
- Alfred Leland Crabb is a historian who is thorough in his research even while writing a good historical novel, and Journey To Nashville is such a book. James Robertson and John Donelson were two wise and intrepid men who wer compelled by the westward moving spirit to lead Robertson a land journey, and Donelson a flatboat voyage to the place which would one day become a kind of "promised land." These journeys were frought with trials, tribulations, but ultimately with adventure which characterized the spirit and courage of the pioneers of that day and time. His portrayal of Historical fiction is such an interesting way to learn some aspects of history. This book is a well done story of the long trip taking the families downriver & upriver and through an untamed wilderness to get to the destination that would one day become Nashville, Tennessee.
