Legendary figures of Mississippi's colorful past--keel-boatman Mike
Fink and the dread Harp brothers--along with characters from Eudora
Welty's own delightful imagination people this rollicking fantasy
set along the Natchez Trace. Berry-stained bandit Jamie Lockhart
steals pioneer wilderness planter Clement Musgrove's beautiful
daughter, Rosamond, away from a home dominated by his ugly, evil
second wife, Salome. These and other characters are gathered
together in a tale at once acid and gentle, wise and lighthearted,
woven as much from the rough homespun of American history as the
gossamer thread of fairy stories.
