In \u003ci\u003eJeffrey Introduces Thirteen More Southern Ghosts\u003c\/i\u003e, Windham’s disembodied friend roams the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Florida to recall thirteen more timeless, spine-tingling tales of baneful and melancholy spirits that spook the most stoic heart.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Opening this volume is “The Girl Nobody Knew.” One midsummer night in the genteel Kentucky mineral spring resort of Harrodsburg, a beautiful lady arrived at the town’s grand hotel. The belle danced late into the night with the town’s smitten gallants only to expire suddenly with the notes of the last quadrille. The spooked residents of Harrodsburg guard a grave you can see to this day. Readers then visit the world-famous Bell Witch of Robinson County, Tennessee. Jeffrey also makes his first trip to old New Orleans to reveal a \u003ci\u003erevenant\u003c\/i\u003e in residence on Royal Street before continuing his ghostly progress across Dixie.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e This new edition returns \u003ci\u003eJeffrey Introduces Thirteen More Southern Ghosts\u003c\/i\u003e to its original format in jacketed cloth full of original, black-and-white illustrations in a handsome keepsake edition perfect for gift-giving and for families, folklorists of all ages, and libraries.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForeword to the Original 1971 Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 1.
