Summary
The history of Jackson is filled with gripping tales of horrors and heroism. A recording company founded in the mid-1960s with the expectation of competing with New Orleans and Memphis was a national success, outlasting its better-funded rivals. Known as the "Devil's Backbone", the Natchez Trace is the graveyard for countless travelers slain by the road's numerous serial killers, brigands, and land pirates. Yet one mass grave stands above the others: The Boyd Mounds, which hold the remains of 31 Choctaws. Although legend has it that the father of Jackson, Louis LeFleur, was a Canadian trapper famous in high society for his dancing, the truth is even stranger. Join Ryan Starrett and Josh Foreman as they reveal the hidden past of the City with Soul.
