Autor Michael J. Varhola, Michael H. Varhola Editat de John B. Kachuba
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2009
Maryland, with its role in the War of 1812 and the Civil War, is a ghost-hunter's dream. This handy guide divides the state into six regions, and profiles the best destinations in each. The USF Constellation boasts three ghosts, including a sailor executed for dereliction of duty; the Gridiron Club is haunted by an old woman kidnapped and murdered by her slaves; Ellicott City is considered the most haunted town in America, with an embarrassment of spooks to choose from. These are just a few of the exciting places profiled in this unusual guidebook.
