Acclaimed journalist and author Lee Sandlin delivers a riveting glimpse of a dangerous and colorful place in America’s historical landscape - the Mississippi River of the 19th century. Long before it was dredged into a shipping channel or romanticized into myth, the untamed Mississippi - the lifeblood of communities that rose and fell along its banks - spawned a motley array of pirates and dignitaries, visionaries, and thieves.

Appropriately for 2020, it’s full of numerous pandemics. Each of which is far worse than COVID-19. Malaria, Yellow Jack and Typhus all show up to make people’s lives miserable. They just had no good way of controlling insects, disposing of sewage, or maintaining hygiene and they had no idea of vaccines so the disease came.
They actually did have systemic racism. He tells of the misery of slavery, including sexual, that was being practiced in Vicksburg and how paranoid of abolition and uprisings slave owners became. Slave owners did not enjoy peace of mind. However the Civil War did come to Vicksburg and the military adventure of its taking may well be the best part of the book.
I highly recommend the book and hope you enjoy.
I really got sucked in. (-:
