quote:If you ever get the chance, read Rising Tide. It's a historical perspective on the 27 flood. There were a lot of "what not to do" examples and some political shenanigans going on that put the river at risk. Great read. I used to hunt with a guy that had property just south of the "27 Break Hunting Club".
The Mississippi Flood of 1927 devastated the Delta region of Mississippi which was then even more overwhelmingly black than it is today, so that name is racist.
