	My Mississippi
	by Willie Morris, David Rae Morris (Photographer)
	He loved Mississippi and he always went back. "The distinguished Mississippi writer Willie Morris (who died last year) was editor-in-chief of Harper's Magazine in the 1960s ... Regardless of the time Morris spent away from Mississippi, it was a place that always remained in his heart. First Morris wants the reader to understand the state's beauty "physically beautiful in the most fundamental and in-dwelling way, [in that] it never leaves you." Then, with both pride and understanding, he brings into sharp focus Mississippi's peculiar tensions and ambivalence and also its passions "we are a singular people," he says of his native folk. The second half of the book is an album of full color photographs taken by Morris' son, a professional photojournalist." Brad Hooper, Booklist
