Silver roads east from Prague: the Winton trains that carried children out in 1939, the Hussite wars, the Battle of Kolín, and Kutná Hora's silver mines — wealth that built a cathedral and, in the end, a chapel decorated with the bones of forty thousand people.

Where the stories come from

Infinite Road draws from a library of primary sources — public-domain county histories, the WPA American Guide Series, National Register of Historic Places records, local records, and encyclopedic sources — then writes and narrates each story in its own words.
