Produktbeschreibung
From the North and South Branches to the Chesapeake Bay, the Potomac River is rife with lost souls and creepy tales. Before European colonists first dipped their toes in our 'Nation's River' it succored generations of Native Americans who added their own stories--and often stained its banks with their blood. Revolutionary War ghosts haunt its length, from Shepherdstown to Saint George's Island. Harpers Ferry is home to more than one 19th century haunt, and ghosts of Civil War soldiers linger in the river's upper reaches. Historic buildings in Sterling, Arlington and Alexandria are home to former residents who have refused to move on. Point Lookout, at the mouth of the river, is the most haunted site in Maryland. Author David W. Thompson tells the ghoulish and ghastly stories of the Potomac River valley.
