"Spend the night in one of the NC towns that offer access to the Smokies such as Bryson City, Waynesville or even Cherokee (it can be tacky but there are some authentic Native American sites there, too, such as the Museum of the Cherokee and Qualla Arts & Crafts, as well as the largest casino, Harrah’s, in the Southeast). Try to get out of your car as much as you can. There are great short hikes along the Blue Ridge Parkway, in the Smokies and at state parks such as Mt. Mitchell (the highest mountain peak east of the Rockies)."

One fascinating section follows the progress through 18th-century London of a Cherokee delegation that sailed to England in 1762."
