3: John Brown’s Sausage Fest (Part 2)
Welcome back to part two of Norm’s coverage of famed anti-slavery crusader, John Brown. In this episode, John and his squad prepare for their infamous raid on Harpers Ferry. In the leadup to the attack, John dodges saboteurs, refuses to compromise, and bores the ever-loving shit out of Frederick Douglass. Plus, he comes up with a cool new invention - a knife on a stick! Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from: “Midnight Rising: John Brown and the Raid That Sparked the Civil War” by Tony Horwitz “To Purge This Land With Blood: A Biography of John Brown” by Stephen Oates “Bleeding Kansas: Contested Liberty in the Civil War Era” by Nicole Etcheson Civil War on the Western Border - https://civilwaronthewesternborder.org/ Kansas Historical Society - https://www.kshs.org/kansapedia/john-brown/11731 Are you enjoying An Old Timey Podcast?
