In the hinterland behind the port of Mobile lies the vast swampy convergence of the Mobile and Tensaw Rivers, a delta rich in fish, game animals, hard and softwood resources. This book offers an account of a man who was artful in all the skills needed to survive and raise a family in this area where most people would be lost or helpless.
