Hello, and welcome to my corner of the ‘net.

The purpose of this blog is to promote my upcoming book, “Murder and Mayhem in Nashville, Tennessee,” due to be published later this year. In these pages you will find some of the lesser known (some would say hidden) pieces of history that took place in the streets of Nashville, and the fields and hills surrounding it. I’ll be sharing interesting tidbits I’ve come across during my research that I think bear repeating.

If you’re from Nashville or not, if you’re new to the area or an “old timer” like me, or if you just like unusual stories about the past, come right in. You’re about to enter a world of gamblers, convicts, highwaymen, outlaws, bootleggers, and other colorful characters that once left their mark on the town. And if you have any comments or questions, send them along. I’d love to hear from you. All I ask is to keep it civil – we’re all here to learn.

So pull up a stump and make yourself comfortable. It should be a wild ride.

More to come. Stay tuned…
