Response to “Old Black Water”

چکیده
Thanks for the wonderful item on the 1927 Mississippi River flood (1). I grew up in New Orleans and on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, hearing of storms and wading through floods all of my life, but no one had ever talked about the 1927 events, and this critical southern event was not taught in any history courses at my schools. Reading John Barry’s Rising Tide: The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 and How It Changed America (2) was an epiphany and a joyous discovery. I had always wondered what it was like at the bottom of the river; he could answer that question.
