Hanks is the author of THE 10: A Memoir of Family and the Open Road. Formerly a staffer at Vanity Fair, she has contributed to Time, The Guardian, The New York Times, and others. She lives in Los Angeles, California. Follow her on Instagram @EAHanks. About the book: From Vanity Fair and The New York Times contributor comes a beautifully written, deeply felt memoir recounting the solo, cross-country journey she made along the Ten across the American southwest: a mission to uncover both what harrowing violence may or may not have happened to her late mother, but also, to look within and discover who she herself is--where her mother ends and she begins. In her trusted loaded-up minivan  Minnie,  E.A. Hanks follows the same route as a long-ago road trip with her mother in an attempt to better understand the complicated woman who gave her life. Along the way, as she follows her mother's diaries and her own recollections of the route, she begins to uncover secrets--some unexpectedly wonderful, and others darker and more violent than she ever imagined--that bring more questions than answers. From the quiet expanses of White Sands National Park to the bustling streets of New Orleans, and the Texas-Mexico border to the swamps of the Florida panhandle, she interacts with the amazing breadth and diversity of the people that call these places home. Reckoning with the past, the present, her memories, and herself, Hanks brings us along a beautiful voyage towards understanding how the stories we tell about the places we're from ultimately become the stories we tell About Tom Hanks: Tom Hanks is an award-winning actor, producer and director. One of only two actors in history to win back-to-back Best Actor Academy Awards, Hanks has starred in over 40 films, including Forrest Gump, Saving Private Ryan, Cast Away, Big, Philadelphia, and A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.

As the music city of the United States, it is essential to visit the Hall of Fame to learn about American country music. It is a very beautiful place with a lot of information. You can also listen to and learn about many classic old songs. It is one of the most recommended attractions here.

Downtown Nashville

麻吉妹妹7

The birthplace of country music in the United States, the music capital, is a must-visit for young people and music lovers. The locals are very friendly and the overall cost is not expensive. The city center is very prosperous with many parking spaces. It is very lively at night with various live performances on the bar street. The local specialty BBQ and fried chicken are worth recommending, they are delicious and not expensive. It is a good choice for young people to travel by car or for family travel!

[Scenery] Even if you are not a huge country music fan, you can still be attracted by the entertainment factor of this place. I especially like the format of the performances here, as well as the number and range of movements. The entire performance will be broadcast live on the radio. The atmosphere is good, relaxed, friendly, and classic American music can also be heard. There is a small drawback, that is, the price of drinks is too high. If the price is reasonable, I believe more will be sold.

Ryman Auditorium

When you go to the city of music, it is a must to enjoy a music performance. The most popular place to watch a performance is the Ryman Auditorium. You can experience different musical styles and the feeling of the scene is really shocking.

Centennial Park

It&#39;s a very beautiful place. I came here early in the morning because it was very close to the hotel where we stayed. The building is quite retro, and the building inside the company is also very beautiful. There are many people doing morning exercises in the park in the morning.
