Teenager Helen Clevenger was brutally murdered at the luxurious Battery Park Hotel in 1936. William Dudley Pelley called himself 'America's Hitler' and founded his Silver Legion in Asheville. He stirred up enough antiwar propaganda to go to prison. A desperado named Will Harris came into town on a cold night in November 1906 and left a trail of dead bodies and panic among Asheville citizens. Mayor Gallatin Roberts killed himself in the wake of collapsing banks. Asheville native Marla Hardee Milling delves into wicked stories of murder, sedition, corruption, arson and disease."--Page 4 of cover. 651 0 Asheville (N.C.) |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A77911 651 0 Asheville (N.C.) |vBiography |vAnecdotes. |=^A77911 650 0 Criminals |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A13018 650 0 Crime |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A1011 650 0 Corruption |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A489161 650 0 Outlaws |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A43009 650 0 Diseases |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville |xHistory |vAnecdotes. |=^A108440 650 0 Tales |zNorth Carolina |zAsheville. |=^A16990 650 7 Diseases. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00895158 650 7 Criminals. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00883516 650 7 Crime. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00882984 650 7 Corruption. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01352550 650 7 Outlaws. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01049233 650 7 Tales. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01142246 651 7 North Carolina |zAsheville. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01205440 |?UNAUTHORIZED 655 7 Anecdotes. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423876 655 7 Biography |vAnecdotes. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423690 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 Warren, Joshua P., |ewriter of introduction. |=^A388234 938 Brodart |bBROD |n122207327 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n15279406 949 F264.A8 M55 2018 |hJOYNER89 |ojdjr |i30372017294759 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 5089808
