Lorenzo Dow's Georgia Curse

What happens when a whole town picks a fight with an eccentric man of God? Lorenzo Dow was one of the most famous—and strange—figures of the American frontier. When he rode into Jacksonboro, Georgia, he expected a congregation; instead, he found a mob. This isn't a ghost story, but a legendary piece of Georgia history about the preacher who "shook the dust from his feet" and left a town to its fate. Join us as we explore the rise and fall of Jacksonboro and the mysterious Dell-Goodall house that stands alone in the woods today.
