Description
Authors Josh Foreman and Ryan Starrett lead readers on a descent into the darkest depths of Mississippi. From embezzler Edward Cates and his effort to avoid prosecution by faking his own death, to the hoop-skirted damsels of the antebellum South and a three-generation struggle for social supremacy, Mississippi knows its way around the seven deadly sins. The Black Knight of Mississippi Alexander McClung finally meets the duelist he can't defeat--himself. Kiah Lincecum hunts for the easy dollar. Nellie Jackson's Natchez bordello caters to a community's base interests. John Law concocts America's first Ponzi scheme with the Mississippi Bubble. The Magnolia State's foremost food critic settles in for a famously gluttonous 31-course meal. And a wrathful scene unfolds at the Carrol County courthouse.
