Ferris serves a slice of Southern life in this presentation
of the wit and wisdom of Ray Lum, livestock trader and
auctioneer. Born in 1891 in rural Mississippi, Lum bartered
horses and mules throughout the South and Southwest. He recalls
his travels and life experiences with the passion and color
characteristic of a consummate storyteller. These personal
reflections are a tribute to a way of life gone by and a
preservation of its memory. The volume opens with a foreword by
Eudora Welty [not on audio book] and concludes with an extensive
bibliographic essay and endnotes. Full of humor and the drama of
life, this book will delight a wide range of readers.
