Beginning with a Manhattan murder in 1799 that led to builder Levi Weeks being ran out of New York, the property surrounding the national landmark, antebellum mansion, Auburn, is today a public golf course teeming with history, told and untold. This documentary takes an in-depth look at first-hand historical material to piece together the full scope of the 108-year-old golf course's story.
