Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mississippi Scenes: Or Sketches of Southern and Western Life and Adventure, Humorous, Satirical, and Descriptive, Including the Legend of Black Creek A very few words will suffice to preface the following sketches, which are mostly drawn from real scenes and characters, and may, therefore, be regarded by the reader as faithfully original. The models and incidents are alone borrowed and embellished. Hundreds now living will doubtless recognize and identify every character, and thousands are familiar with the scenery and many of the incidents. These facts serve to alleviate, partially, the distrust with which I offer them to the public; though, if I shall have failed to paint sufficiently life-like, my mortification will be, in consequence, much the more intense. The Mississippi reader, however, will took in vain for the originals of all the characters and scenes in our own State or midst; and many friends in Georgia, where the author´s early life and youth were passed, will, no doubt, be surprised to find much in the following pages which belongs more properly to pleasant reminiscences of the treasured past.
