A History of Mississippi: From the Discovery of the Great River by Hernando DeSoto by Robert Lowry is a comprehensive and detailed account of the state of Mississippi from the arrival of the first European explorers to the present day. The book covers the state's geography, geology, flora, and fauna, as well as its history, politics, culture, and economy. Lowry begins with the arrival of Hernando DeSoto in 1540 and traces the state's development through the colonial era, the Civil War, Reconstruction, the Civil Rights Movement, and beyond. He explores the state's role in the development of the United States, including its contributions to agriculture, industry, and the arts. The book also delves into Mississippi's complex racial history, including slavery, segregation, and the struggle for civil rights. Lowry's writing is clear and engaging, and he draws on a wide range of sources to provide a comprehensive and nuanced portrait of Mississippi. This book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of the state or the South more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
