A proposito di questo titolo
This episode of the 1836 Podcast, continues the Governors of Arkansas series by profiling the state's second governor, Archibald Yell. Join us as we explore the remarkable life of one of Arkansas’s most dynamic early leaders. Born in 1797 on the Tennessee frontier, Archibald Yell fought alongside Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans, rose to become Arkansas’s second governor, represented the state in Congress, and ultimately met a heroic death leading a cavalry charge in the Mexican-American War. Along the way, we uncover the stories behind Yell County and the town of Yellville — including the legendary $50 promise he made to rename the settlement, a debt that went unpaid for over a century until his descendants finally settled it in 2005. It’s a captivating story of ambition, courage, and the untamed spirit of the Old Southwest.#arkansas #history #arkansasgovernor #ozarks #podcast #arkansashistory
