At the close of the nineteenth century in the Ozark Plateau,
lawlessness ruled. Lawmakers, in bed with moonshiners and
bootleggers, fueled local crime and turned a blind eye to egregious
wrongdoing. In response, a vigilante force emerged from the Ozark
hills: the Bald Knobbers. They formed their own laws and alliances;
local ministers donned the Knobber mask and brought "justice" to
the hills, lynching suspected bootleggers. As community support and
interest grew, reporters wrote curious articles about Knobber
exploits. Join Vincent S. Anderson as he uncovers these peculiar
reports including trials, lovers' spats ending in coldblooded
murder and Ozark vigilante history that inspired a folk legend.
