Book excerpt: "A Bachelor's Life in Antebellum Mississippi brings to the public one of the few diaries of a very intelligent yet "ordinary" man, a non-elite member of a society dominated by a planter aristocracy. The author's frankness and flair for writing reflect a way of life not often seen; this volume will thus prove a valuable addition to the body of primary documents from the early republic."--Jacket.
