Follow the Yellow Brick Road Welcome to the Land of Ahs! KANSAS!Getting off the beaten track in Kansas can lead to a number of great destinations, a wealth of history, and a number of fascinating tales and legends.From the wild and wooly cowtowns of Kansas to the Bleeding Kansas days prior to the Civil War, Native American legacies, and the Overland Trails, Kansas is an exciting place for the history buff and features numerous museums and historical sites commemorating its heritage.For those looking for scenery and wildlife, travelers will be happy to know that Kansas provides 12 scenic byways, six nature reserves, and more than two dozen state parks.While Kansas provides much more than the typical traveler might anticipate, Legends of Kansas focuses primarily on the state s rich history, its legends, and tales, out of the way places, and every little nook and cranny that Kansans call home.Working with several historic books, including; Kansas: A Cyclopedia of State History published in 1912; History of the State of Kansas, published in 1883, and Kansas, A Guide to the Sunflower State, written by authors of the Federal Writer s Project and published in 1939; we endeavor to provide both the history and the updates of these many locations.
