Mississippi: A Bicentennial History (States and the Nation)

by John Ray Skates

Overview

What life has really been like for most Mississippians is the story told in this intriguing history.

To many Americans, Mississippi means Natchez and Vicksburg, white columns and cotton. For the people who have lived there, however, Mississippi has been a decidedly different place. Depending on who you were, and where and when you lived, Mississippi could be a much worse or far better place than that portrayed by its romantic image.
