A Southerner of the Mississippi Delta tells, discursively and with no little charm, of his childhood, parents, Virginia relatives, small boy activities and education and life in the pre-1900's. Harvard Law, a spot of teaching, politics, travel, the First World War and his share. Back to Mississippi, fighting the Klan and the river floods.
