A quiet Texas town with a world-famous sweet tooth, a high-wire legend, and an oil claim that rewrote state history—Corsicana packs more surprises per mile than most big cities. We head south of Dallas to trace how a German baker created an early mail-order empire, why a mysterious one-legged tightrope walker still draws visitors to a simple grave, and how one cop built a parallel career on set while bridging trust back at home.
