Big Woods remembered in Iowa histories and trials
The article recalls the fading Big Woods in Iowa once wild and hunted by horse thieves and criminals, now split into tracts after land division. It notes Daniel High owning 160 acres, tapping 150 gallons of maple sap, and details local figures like Howard Clark and others, with references to Drake Relays and diverse participants.
