OZK 150: Introduction to Ozarks Studies - Lecture 26: Grandin: The Big Mill & Tall Timber

My grandpa logged with mules during the depression in the van buren area. Half the town and our family moved out to wa. State,where I was born.

Thanx you for the production of this video. I'm doing internet research for an Ozarks themed narrow gauge railroad set circa @1910. The narration and pictures are complete and priceless for a student of the Ozarks. I have infinite respect for the iron men and women, of all races, that endured work conditions and hardships us 21st century folk could never appreciate. I hope to create a freelance model railroad that does justice to both your extensive research, and to the hardy people of that sliver in time. Keep 'em coming!

Great video. I grew up between Doniphan and Grandin. I even worked in the timber industry before going into the service in 1972. My hometown of Doniphan had the largest railroad tie yard up until the 1960s..

Thank you so much for this documentary. I found it while researching for my model railroad, which I wanted to set in the vicinity of Salem & what I call canoe float country.

I just moved to the ozarks 3 years ago and I have a very old railroad track in my back land which is what brought me here

I live in Nixa which is pretty close to the Ozarks

I can imagine no OSHA regulations and having to rely on personal smarts and personal responsibility.

While this is nice the original video was stunning

Sounds like the company was making a killing
