Memoirs of Mississippi, 1891

I have owned the two original Volumes of "Memoirs of Mississippi, 1891" for over twenty years, but only recently tried to use them for research on original issues for Mississippi from its beginnings to the Civil War, but size, format, age of printed pages, and un-search ability sof them made it impossible to construct a summary of the information. I decided that it needed to be made more usable by transcribing it into a modern format (digital, and searchable), and more economical to reproduce and share with others. I originally thought that a chapter by chapter transcription and publishing would be best, but decided that a somewhat larger, but less than volume size would be best. This book includes Chapters 1 and 2. Chapter 1 gives an introduction, a preface by the original editors, and goes on to discuss the topography, natural history, and paleontology of Mississippi. Chapter 2 presents the Indians, their wars and their Cessions.
