Friends: The new enlarged and updated edition of my book, JACKSON MISSISSIPPI: AN AMERICAN CHRONICLE OF STRUGGLE AND SCHISM, is now available for purchase. The publisher is Bison Books/University of Nebraska Press. The publisher's link, a bit further down, discusses the book, provides several reviews, and carries ordering information. The initial Introduction in the two earlier editions has been replaced by one written by me. This is, in many ways, a large, additional chapter [about 9500 words] which up-dates Mississippi, discusses our family's always interesting experiences since the first edition of JM appeared in 1979, and contains supplemental autobiographical material. And, of course, it also contains something of my reflections as a life-long social justice organizer. The dedication: For Eldri and the Family -- truly a Golden Horde And in memory of Doris and Ben Allison and Medgar Wiley Evers Thus this will likely be my basic autobiographical memoir. As a corollary to that, however, I must say that my health is fine. The University of Nebraska Press is one of the largest university presses in the country. Here is their announcement of Jackson, Mississippi: (Click on the photo and it'll get bigger.) http://www.nebraskapress.unl.edu/product/Jackson-Mississippi,674910.aspx (You may also wish to check out the front page of our very large Lair of Hunterbear website. We have rearranged that and it now carries, among other new dimensions, about three dozen of our representative links. Makes for quick and easy reference. www.hunterbear.org Also, if you know of other people who may be interested in our Jackson Mississippi message, I would be much obliged if you could pass this along. Many thanks.) In the Mountains of Eastern Idaho Nialetch/Onen/Solidarity Hunter Bear (Hunter Gray / John R.
