Traveling US 25 through the Carolinas today is a much more pleasant experience than it was in the 1700s. Then, the road from the Tennessee Cherokee Towns to Augusta, Georgia, was a Cherokee trading path that followed a bison trace to the navigable port on the Savannah River. Drovers came from as far as Kentucky herding hogs, turkeys and mules. Lowcountry South Carolinians traveled by stagecoach and wagon to the foothills and mountains, staying for months. The Augusta Road, Saluda Gap and Buncombe Turnpike became the Dixie Highway Carolina Division and then US Route 25 by 1931. Authors Anne Peden and Jim Scott travel the trading path and concrete highway to explore this fascinating history.

"On that night my friend Derek Reardon and I went to a bar in Atkinson to start drinking before we moved the partying to an old friend's house. I have no memory of being there, but for some odd reason I decided to drive home. This is still a mystery to me. I wasn't a habitual drunk driver, but that doesn't matter because I know now that one time is all it takes." Jim Scott tells an intense story of Traumatic Brain Injury and the long, grueling journey that follows. A cautionary tale for young drivers, and a source of inspiration for others suffering from a TBI.
