A Place Like Mississippi takes readers on a fascinating journey through the evocative landscapes that have inspired generations of writers. W. Ralph Eubanks, an award-winning author and native of Mississippi, offers a compelling literary tour of the state.

From the muddy Delta to the rolling Hill Country, down to the Gulf Coast, Mississippi has been both a backdrop and a central character in some of the most compelling prose and poetry of modern literature. This journey touches on the settings that informed hundreds of iconic works.

Immerse yourself in these spaces and discover that Mississippi is not just a state, but a state of mind. As Faulkner is said to have observed, "To understand the world, you must first understand a place like Mississippi."
