Riverboats were once the workhorses of America’s river towns. They hauled cargo and passengers up and down our country’s inland waterways. Today our cargo takes different routes and riverboats are more of a novelty. Most people know about the River City Star in Omaha, but have you heard of is southernly sister, the Spirit of Brownville?
The Spirit of Brownville has been offering cruises on the Missouri River for generations. It’s a beloved tradition in this tiny river town.
