The book:

The Longest Cave
by Roger W. Brucker & Richard A. Watson
ISBN 0-394-48793-1
Alfred A. Knopf, Inc.  NY

Is about the Mammoth Cave/Colossal Cave/[Flint Ridge system, and a host of
others] complex in Kentucky, rather than TN.  The system is over 300 mi in
length and is the longest known cave system in the world, nothing else even
comes close.  Pat Crowther was indeed on the party that linked Mammoth to 
the Flint Ridge system, and numerous other trips.  She is unrelated to 
anyone, however, including her family.
