What the Night Sounded Like (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The following is a short excerpt from my upcoming book, Once and Future Indiana: A Eulogy for the Lost Natural Heritage of the Hoosier State and a Prayer for its Resurrection. A reconstruction of what a night in Indiana once sounded like, it uses only direct quotes from firsthand accounts used elsewhere in the book. <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!2Px8!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaw
