Since the publication of his first book, Mississippi Solo, Eddy L. Harris has been praised for his travel writing. In this exciting reissue of his classic travelogue, readers will come to treasure the rich insightful prose that is as textured as the Mississippi River itself. They will be taken by the hand by an adventurer whose lifelong dream is to canoe the length of this mighty river, from Minnesota to New Orleans. The trip's dangers were legion for a Black man traveling alone, paddling from "where there ain't no black folks to where they still don't like us much." Barge waives loom large, wild dogs roam the wooded shores, and, in the Arkansas dusk, two shotgun-toting bigots nearly bring the author's dream to a bloody . Sustaining him through the hard weeks of paddling were the hundreds of people who reached out to share a small piece of his challenge. Mississippi Solo is a big, rollicking, brilliant book, a wonderful piece of American adventure, and an unforgettable story of a man testing his own limits.

If you need something warm
Team Name: Lightweight Comforter, Size: Oversized King, Color: Black
Not cooling at all. Very warm 365 days a year (I live in AZ) Use it as an extra layer of fluff on my bed rather then an actual blanket as its to warm for me. Very soft though. Washes well and holds its color. Priced well. Lightweight. Have had for sometime and isnt falling apart.

Color and weight are perfect
Team Name: Lightweight Comforter, Size: King, Color: Sage Green, Team Name: Lightweight Comforter, Size: King, Color: Sage Green
Perfect, lightweight; just what I was looking for. It’s soft and feels nice. Sage Green color is true to the photo. I bought a king for a queen bed, I’m glad I didn’t get the queen because it would have left my mattress visible but I can still see the bed with the king. For the price, it’s okay quality and I’m okay with that.

Lightweight, Cozy, and Affordable!
Team Name: Lightweight Comforter, Size: Queen, Color: Lavender Purple
This comforter is such a great value for the price. It’s lightweight but still warm and cozy, making it perfect for year-round use. The fabric feels soft to the touch, and it fluffs up nicely right out of the package. The queen size fits my bed perfectly and looks great once styled with pillows. It also washes well — I tossed it in the washer and dryer and it came out just as fluffy as before, no clumping or shifting. If you want a comfortable, budget-friendly comforter that looks and feels nice, this is definitely a great pick!
