A sand mountain melted down to make jars. A bomber roasts five nuclear warheads. The Skunk Lady of Howe. Cocaine-smuggling florists. Grave-robbers galore. Nerve gas stockpiles. Capone tunnels. Gangster graves. Brain collections. A rock quarry made by a meteorite...Indiana's a lot odder than you think.
Fun informational read about things to see, things that were and things that go bump in the night. May not mean much to the reader who is not familiar with the Hoosier state. his is a good read!
I wanted to like this book more than I did. More often than not, however, the author would build anticipation at the beginning of a chapter, only to let they story peter out with no real payoff. And don't get me started on the typos! Still, a fun read for Hoosiers and former Hoosiers.
