This book reminds me, in the sweetest way possible, that I probably
should have never left Nashville." - Chris Thile Introduction by
Pulitzer Prize-winning Author Jon Meacham A dynamic, experiential,
and intimate portrait that explores the many sides of the legendary
Southern city and country music capital, from award-winning writers
Ann Patchett, Jon Meacham, and acclaimed photographer Heidi Ross.
Nashville is a creative collaboration that awakens the senses,
providing a virtual immersion in this unique American city hailed
as the Athens of the South. Patchett, Ross, and Meacham in his
introduction, at once capture both the city's iconic historical
side-its deep, rich Southern roots, from its food and festivals to
its famous venues, recording studios, and style-and its edgier,
highly vibrant creative side, which has made it a modern cultural
mecca increasingly populated by established and upcoming artists in
art, film, and music. Nashville celebrates Nashvillians' beloved
locales and events, both established and new, that are the heart of
the city's character including: Bobbie's Dairy Dip Buchanan Arts
District Bolton's Chicken and Fish East Nashville Tomato Arts
Festival Germantown The Gulch Grand Ole Opry Pie Town (SoBro) Pride
Festival Prince's Hot Chicken Schermerhorn Symphony Center Stanley
Cup Playoffs Tennessee Performing Arts Center Tennessee State Fair
Third Man Records Here, too, are engaging vignettes spotlighting
the diverse talent that makes the Tennessee city a significant
cultural incubator and influencer, including singer-songwriters
Marty Stuart, Gillian Welch, and Dave Rawlings; film director
Harmony Korine, textile designer Andra Eggleston, country music
fashion designer to the stars Manuel, chef Margot McCormack,
acclaimed pastry chef Lisa Donovan, and model and musician Karen
Elson. Blending exceptional narrative, evocative
photography-including 175 black-and-white and color photographs-and
a bold graphic design, Nashville is an intimate, textured panorama
that brilliantly illuminates one of America's most remarkable
treasures.
