Monumental Tales from the Ozarks

Sinopse

Every region has its share of well-known and lesser-known stories to tell, some legendary, monumental, or memorable-- and, a number of them are significant that they have had monuments erected and dedicated to them. The Ozarks region is no exception-- its countryside is dotted with memorials and tombstones that highlight and commemorate its colorful past. There are tales and leftover signs of the famous and the infamous, unique folklore, Civil War, disasters, and the unexplained. Some, however remain obscure while others are heralded, but they all have one thing in common, they can still educate, entertain, and inspire those of us who are still living. Numerous photographs, additional illustrations, bibliographies and an index to full names and places enhance the value of this work.
