Much has changed since my first "Gulfport Discovered" publication. A significant update is presented herein -- Gulfport -- Celebration City. The lapse of time since my earlier book covers five mayors who have stepped up to make Gulfport a better place. However the catastrophic disruptions of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, much like its predecessor Hurricane Camille in 1969, caused the loss of many heritage landmarks and many scars still remain on the landscape. However, the State of Mississippi, the Harrison County governing body, and the City Fathers have stepped up to design new miracles of improvements. The Mississippi Port Authority was seriously set back but have taken great strides in remaking the infrastructure of the Port of Gulfport to make it better than ever with plans of furthering its accountability as a seaport.
