Accuse me of bragging a bit, but this is the autobiography of my Great-grandmother, Miz Mary Mann Hamilton, and her life living and raising her family in the virgin timber lumber camps of what had been the natural unsettled wilderness now known as the Mis'sippi Delta and it is a wonderful true tale of life, determination, mystery, and hardships endured from a demure, small woman with an iron backbone and insurmountable grit and determination.
