Ohio history can get pretty strange! From the author of the popular offbeat travel guide €œOhio Oddities€, here are 75 equally odd tales of Ohio€s most remarkable people, places, and events.

Learn why residents of Blueball, Ohio, erected a monument to a pig. Witness the birth of the inflatable airplane in Akron. Revisit Ohio€s last public whipping, near Dayton. Find out if Ohio really was bombed by the Japanese in World War II. Read about Ashtabula€s famed Headless Chicken, who lived without his noggin for 38 days . . . the world€s first recorded automobile accident . . . the man who invented disposable diapers . . .

A real treat for anyone who enjoys Ohio history with a twist.
