White River Inspirations

Discover a few books & inspirations that have assisted me in understanding the historical context of the White River in the Ozarks. From Flatboats & Keelboats to the Golden Age of Steamboats, these books are a gem. These sources will be referenced in future videos as a foundation of discovery in our Ozarks' History.
