From the Back Cover
Whether you’re a born-and-raised Arkansan, a recent transplant, or just passing through, Arkansas Curiosities will have you laughing out loud as Janie and Wyatt Jones take you on a rollicking tour of the strangest sides of the Natural State.
Read about one man’s 1957 social experiment in a clothes-minded state, which prompted an anti-nudity law that may be unique in the Western world.
Fly along with a Labrador Retriever named Bear, who in 1974 vanished on an Arkansas-bound plane and ended up crisscrossing America before returning home to a hero’s welcome.
Learn how a famed fowl’s rumored return in 2004 after sixty years of apparent extinction caused a
flutter among bird lovers everywhere.
