Lawsuits tried in Tunica County, Mississippi form the skeleton for this book, telling about historical events in the past and fleshed out with biographical sketches of early citizens of this Delta Country, a Country formed and still heavily influenced by the Mississippi River, and a Country that has metamorphosed from one of the poorest in the Nation to, with the advent of casinos, one of the richest. The reader will find the bad and the sad counterbalanced with the happy and amusing, all laced with the philosophical and the evident affection of the author for his community.
