I assume you are referring to paper charts, not electronic, in which case
there are chart books published by the US Army Corp of engineers for the
rivers. You can order them on-line or sometimes buy them at local marinas.
Get the following
Illinois Waterway Navigation Charts
Upper Mississippi River Navigation Charts
Tennessee River Navigation Charts
Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway Charts
Lower Black Warrior-Tombigbee Waterway Charts
There are two other rivers that you will use briefly:
Ohio River. There is a chart from Cairo to Foster but rather than
purchase the entire chart I just printed chart pages 1-15 from the Internet.
Cumberland River. You may or may not use this river. You could just
print pages 1-5 from the Internet or do without for this short simple leg.
