About this listen

Galveston Island's remarkable journey from pirate haven to "Wall Street of the South" reveals a forgotten chapter of American history where this Texas coastal city nearly rivaled New York in economic importance. We explore how Galveston became the third richest city per capita in America before the catastrophic 1900 hurricane forever altered its destiny.
