it sounds like after 20 books you've crossed the 'basic' threshold. I did have a chance to check out the museum and the archives (post-renovation) this past spring and if you can make it down, there were dozens of books related to this study ( i was looking for something else at the time so am unable to recall specifics) as well as many regimental histories. Also contains, a very large genealogical section related to East Tennessee families. I spent several hours there and merely scratched the surface.

The E TN story is one that is very different to what took place in middle TN particularly in those northern counties. I should have some detailed info to give you sometime tomorrow. If/when you do get to Knoxville the Bleak House is a wonderful site with some great guides just a couple miles west of downtown.
