Glenn House Updated
In spring 2017, the Voices from the Backstairs Tour was launched at the
restored Victorian mansion within view of the Mighty Muddy Mississippi. According to Tom Grantham, President of the Glenn House Historical Association, the tour is an American version of Downton Abbey, covering much of the same world changes. An upper apartment, accessed from the rear of the house, which was the servant quarters, has been completely restored. In this episode of American Road Trip Talk, Tom fills in the history of this elegant Mississippi mansion.
