Descripción
Truth is quirkier than fiction in this romp through the history of one unforgettable town. Millions of tourists know Eureka Springs, Arkansas, as a charming Victorian village. Far fewer have heard these sixty too-crazy-to-make-up tales of colorful characters who have trodden its wildly uneven streets.
- How did a skin rash lead to the town's founding?
- Why did local saloons post signs saying "All Nations Welcome Except Carrie"?
- Did the Crescent Hotel really have a morgue in its basement?
- How did a historic Black neighborhood completely vanish?
- What local farm product put the city on outlaw country musicians' tour schedules?
- Why do hundreds of UFO researchers converge on the town every April?
- Where is the best place in town to see a Bigfoot?
- And how did a remote backwoods hamlet become a haven for hippies, bikers, the gay community, and a seven-story Jesus statue?
Find out as you discover the other side of the Ozarks!
