River Road and The Natchez Trace
- Travel Video.
DVD. 55 Minutes.
Hosted by Tom Bodett.
Part
#1: The River Road – Before stern-wheeled steamboats, riverboat men
relied on the Mississippi’s mighty current to propel their flat-bottomed
boats to New Orleans.
The same strong currents made up-river travel impossible, so they
walked or rode back to Natchez along the River Road.
Tom revisits the favorite New Orleans vice dens of the rowdy
boatmen, and tramps through the alligator-infested swamps crossed by
River Road.
Part #2: The Natchez Trace was the second
leg of the riverboat men’s journey home to Nashville.
Tom tells the stories of the infamous land pirates who preyed on
unwary travelers, and the mysterious death of Meriwether Lewis at
Grinder’s Stand. He also visits Cypress Swamp, Indian burial grounds,
the Civil War battleground at Franklin, Tennessee, and Belle Meade
Plantation at trail’s end in Nashville.

America's Mysterious Places - Travel Video. 2 Volume Set.
VHS.
"The fairest thing we can experience is the
mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of
true art and true science." -Albert Einstein, 1934
Here is the definitive documentary
investigation of America's most extraordinary historical sites.
World renowned experts trace the facts
and
the myths of America's most famous unexplained mysteries. From the strange
apparitions of tombstone, to the haunting tale of Salem, Massachusetts, to
the amazing sculpture of Coral Castle, you will explore the otherworldly
mysteries that continue to captivate Americans.
VOLUME 1
The Witches of Salem
Why was Salem the site of the world's
most infamous with trials? How were witches "proven guilty?" Why is
the town's food supply of crucial importance to one new theory?
The Ghosts of Tombstone
A famous silver boomtown of the Old West, Tombstone is also the site of
some of the world's most notorious haunted places - from the Bird Cage
theatre's "ghostly manifestations", to the strange phantasm in Big Nose
Kate's Saloon. Why does this town continue to attract "spirit
photographers", psychics - and the plain curious?
The Mystery of Coral Castle
One of the world's most bizarre
structures, this 1,000-ton 'castle' was sculpted out of coral rock.
Incredibly, it was constructed by just one man! Who was he and how did he
quarry, haul and carve on such a grand scale - alone and unobserved?
VOLUME 2
Chaco Canyon: Secrets of the Anasazi
A curious canyon in New Mexico holds secrets of North America's first
"civilization". Who lived here almost a thousand years ago? Where
did the people go? What was Pueblo Bonito - and who built it?
America's Stonehenge?
Known variously as "Mystery Hill" and
"America's Stonehenge". Did the Celts build this strange site?
Or was it ancient Native Americans? Was it an observatory, as some
suggest? A shrine? Or was it used for another, darker purpose: human
sacrifice?
Stories in Stone: Petroglyphs of the
Southwest
In the Rio Grande Valley of the Southwest
we find startling etchings carved into stone. Who were the ancient
Americans that created them? Will we ever decipher the meaning of
their stories in stone?

world.
Revelations from personal letters and diaries, beautiful
re-creations, insights from noted historians, and archival footage
combine to make history come alive as never before!

Nation - You will see
the Pilgrims land on the wild shores of Massachusetts, celebrate the

Plymouth Plantation.
Then relive the dramatic years of the American Revolution, and
journey along with Paul Revere on his frantic midnight ride. Suffer

Northwest.

railroad.
Part #3: Leading the
World - You will step
into Thomas Edison's workshop. Be there as Henry Ford perfects the
