Walk along the limestone cobbles of Laclede's Landing and witness the birth of a city with large aspirations and crooked dealings. Here you will find fur traders hardened by wilderness \"law,\" former slaves fighting for their future, criminals immortalized in song, the rise and fall of the elite, and the fight for the soul of a child. Meet the people behind Eads Bridge, the Old Courthouse, City Hospital, Lemp Brewery, and more. From the Louisianna Purchase, the Civil War, Reconstruction, and to the modern day, hear their stories and learn why they may still haunt the cobblestones beneath your feet. Jennifer Elwyn delves into the dark side of an historic city. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467158060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128","brand":"Jennifer Elwyn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44524597051573,"sku":"9781467158060","price":18.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_19010559-628b-4efc-a795-1d26269034be.jpg?v=1722920259","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/historic-haunts-of-st-louis-9781467158060","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
