Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Publications of the Mississippi Historical Society, Vol. 8 This volume of the Publications contains twenty-seven original contributions to the history of Mississippi and the South. The reader will be gratified to learn that since the appearance of Volume VII. several new fields of research have yielded rich returns to the efforts of investigators. Students of Mississippi history have often expressed surprise that, with the exception of the Choctaws, the Indian tribes of the State have received, in recent years, little attention from those who are engaged in historical research. This volume contains the first fruits of work in the history of the Chickasaw Indians. Other new fields of investigation, which have yielded valuable returns within the last year are the following: ante-bellum historical activity, philanthropy, population, statistics, etc. It is gratifying to note the fact that the War between the States and the period of Reconstruction are still engaging the talents of the patriotic citizens of Mississippi. It is natural that a worthy survivor of the Lost Cause should be impressed with the importance of taking stock of the efforts which have been made and which are being made to honor the memories of those Confederate heroes who lost their lives in the great struggle. The contributions here published on biography and legislative reform show the continuation of interest in these important subjects. The new spirit of industrial activity in the State finds echo in the contribution devoted to one of the rapidly developing industries of the South. The citizens of Mississippi and Louisiana will doubtless find much to interest them in the contribution devoted to the boundary controversy between these Commonwealths.
