 Tennessean magazine columns
This is the place where you can find History Bill's Tennessee magazine columns. In February 2006, Bill Carey began writing a column that appeared in Tennessee magazine -- the publication produced by the Tennessee Association of Electrical Cooperatives. Since Tennessee has an enormous audience, the column has helped spread the word about the Tennessee History for Kids web page, posters, videos, etc.  As teachers have come to depend on Tennessee History for Kids, many of them have asked if the columns could be "linked" to the page. It is because of this request that this part of THFK has been created. The columns are organized by general subject matter.
