River of Dreams: Imagining the Mississippi before Mark Twain - Southern Literary Studies
Thomas Ruys Smith
From empire building in the Louisiana Purchase to the trauma of the Civil War, the Mississippi's dominant symbolic meanings tracked the essential forces operating within the nation. As Thomas Ruys Smith shows in this groundbreaking work, the story of the imagined Mississippi River is the story of antebellum America itself.
