Jackson celebrates the history of Mississippi�s capital city with more than 200 photographs from the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the National Archives, and university collections. From its start as a settlement on LeFleur�s Bluff overlooking the Pearl River to its present-day position as one of the leading cities of the New South, Jackson�s history is one of change, colorful characters, and a uniquely Southern atmosphere. Beginning with a tour of one of the city�s oldest and best-known streets, Jackson features the work of outstanding local photographers and combines detailed historical narratives with entertaining stories about ordinary Jacksonians. From the club president who saved a magnolia tree by staging a protest in its branches to the photographer who opened his first studio in a tent, this compelling visual history revisits familiar landmarks and people from Jackson�s past.
