The Norman photographic collection is literally a treasure. The approximately 75,000 prints and negatives that comprise this collection were acquired (and saved from destruction) in 1960 by Dr. Thomas Gandy, a Natchez physician. After years of work in printing, organizing, and identifying the negatives, Dr. Gandy and his wife Joan have selected over two-hundred photographs to be reproduced in Norman's Natchez: An Early Photography and His Town. These photographs provide a remarkable visual record of the unique town of Natchez, Mississippi, from the Civil War through the glittering Victorian era into the twentieth century. Henry C. Norman was a professional photography in Natchez from 1870 until his death in 1913. The massive collection from which the book was created contains not only his work, but also that of photographer Marsh and Henry Gurney for whom Norman first worked. The Gurney brothers started their photographic studio in Natchez in 1851 and recorded the people and scense

Eudora Welty, for nearly forty years the first lady of southern letters, has recreated most memorably in her short stories and novels the voices and the personalities of her fellow Mississippians and southerners. What more fitting tribute could the Center for the Study of Southern Culture pay to one already honored in so many ways---by her readers and her colleagues, by critics and scholars---than to inaugurate its programs by inviting these admirers to meet with Miss Welty and celebrate her achievements? The Eudora Welty Symposium brought together on the University of Mississippi campus in November 1977 more than 800 persons from thirty-two states and three foreign countries. The papers presented at the symposium, exploring topics ranging from serious appraisals of her writings to lighter comments about Miss Welty as a friend, comprise the contents of Eudora Welty: A Form of Thanks.

History

A Mississippi sheriff's account of a notorious southern outlaw's heyday in crime Jesse James, John Dillinger, Machine Gun Kelly, Bonnie and Clyde -- James Copeland (born 1823) was the granddaddy of them all. This is his notorious history as recorded by the sheriff who arrested him in 1857. During the 1830s, '40s, and '50s, Copeland and his gang of outlaws ranged over territory extending from Mobile Bay to Lake Pontchartrain. The name "Copeland" became a fearsome household word. To this day, many are amazed that the life of one so young could have been so overfilled with felony. Dr. Pitt's startling narrative of Copeland's notorious life and heyday in crime was first published in 1858 and reprinted in 1874, 1909, 1980, and 1992. The account has never failed to fascinate.
