Stones, Bones and Forgotten Voyagers

Stones, Bones and Forgotten Voyagers: Giants, Ghosts, and Forgotten Civilizations of the Ozark PlateauBeneath the winding streets of Eureka Springs and the misty hollows of the Ozark Plateau lies a secret history far older-and stranger-than the Victorian cottages and healing springs that draw dreamers today.What if the very ground you walk in Eureka Springs was once home to a lost world of towering giants, master stone builders, and seafaring voyagers who reached these ancient mountains centuries before Columbus? What if the ghosts that whisper through the historic hotels and wooded trails are not just local legends, but echoes of a forgotten civilization whose bones and megalithic works still lie hidden in caves, sinkholes, and overgrown ridges just minutes from downtown?This groundbreaking book pulls back the veil on suppressed archaeological discoveries, oversized skeletal remains unearthed across the region, mysterious inscribed stones, and Native American oral traditions that speak of red-haired giants and 'star visitors' who walked the Buffalo River and settled the White River headwaters. From the shadowy crevices near Beaver Lake to the sacred springs of Eureka herself, author Patrick reveals a forgotten epic written in stone and bone.Perfect for locals who’ve always sensed something ancient in the mountain air, and for visitors seeking more than boutiques and ghost tours-this book transforms your Eureka Springs getaway into a true journey through time. Discover why this magical corner of Arkansas may be one of America’s most important lost chapters.Will you dare to see what lies beneath the hills?
