Mississippi River Country Tales

A Celebration of 500 Years of Deep South History

Jim Fraiser,

About this book

"An engaging new history.... Filled with enjoyable anecdotes and fast paced tales.... A must for Deep South aficionados" — The Greenwood Commonwealth

The people who live in towns and cities along the Mississippi River in the southern United States are a special breed, steeped in 500 years of history as rich as the coffee they drink, or the soil where once the river ran.

Mississippi River Country Tales is a fast-paced, easy to read history that covers everything from the early conquistadors and the first Mardi Gras to Fannie Lou Hamer and Archie Manning, and covers the geographic region from Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, and Louisiana.

"Fraiser relates the invaluable contributions made by people of all racial and ethnic backgrounds. He points out with rare perceptiveness the continuing impact of this intriguing mix of cultures in the region today." — The Biloxi Sun Herald

"Entertaining... Stories of unlikely heroes and legendary villains, ghastly death and ghostly sightings, bright humor and dark tragedy. Mississippi River Country Tales is fascinating material." — Delta Book News
