"Mississippi, Missing, Miss" is a book-length manuscript of poetry. The poems are a confessional, coming-of-age response to a highly-particularized Southern landscape. They examine that landscape by confrontation of religious hegemony, social hierarchies, and family trauma. The families in this book are meant to serve as specific illustrations of collective tensions, particularly those between social conservatism and the struggle for queer equality. Underneath these various subjects is a larger grappling with the grief of severed belonging. Some poems examine this grief by guiding a child and adolescent through the language and meaning of dance, the voices not unlike an omniscient ballet master. Other poems challenge their own grief through elegies for a first love, a trans man who dies young. Others trace their grief through generational trauma that begins when the speakers' ancestors arrive in Mississippi. The book does not arrive at solutions but, instead, intends to provide attentive space for discomfort. Its speakers' aims are to make sense of tension, of a landscape that somehow allows both unspeakable violence and tenderness.

When a little girl from a small town in West Virginia disappears, and the police have no leads, it falls to Theodore Hammond, part time bodyguard and part time private detective, to piece together the clues, and find the girl. Theodore soon finds that this girl was just the first of three little girls who went missing over two days in June. Three little girls are missing, and three mothers desperately want to hold their daughters once more. It is up to Theodore Hammond to find them, and bring them home again. But it will not be easy. If Theodore Hammond is going to find the girls, and bring them home again, then it is going to take all of his skill, all of his nerve, and a healthy dose of luck. WARNING!

Though thirty years in the making, Phillip Collier's Missing New Orleans was almost another treasure lost to Hurricane Katrina. Final proof was due at the New Orleans printer August 31, 2005, just days after floodwaters breached the levees. To the principals of the book, "missing New Orleans" took on personal, devastating meanings. This pictorial history of New Orleans from the early 1700s to the present offers over 250 images as well as stories of places, entities, and events that were at one time a vital part of the city. Each lost gem tells a unique narrative: the Claiborne Avenue Oaks, the French Opera House, Pontchartrain and Lincoln Beaches, the Gypsy Tea Room, Tulane and Pelican Stadiums, Mr. Bingle, and D. H. Holmes. Images celebrate grand historic structures that once stood along New Orleans thoroughfares, including the St. Louis and St. Charles Hotels from the mid-nineteenth century and the five downtown railroad stations and the Rivergate from the twentieth century. Through the photographs, postcards, posters, maps, and line drawings gathered by New Orleans graphic designer Phillip Collier, those enamored of the Crescent City can explore a time when West End Park and Spanish Fort were lakefront resort destinations, when boxing and horse racing ruled the city's sporting world, when street vendors plied their wares, and steamboats packed the wharves.

A riveting account of one of the most remarkable episodes in American history. In his critically acclaimed history Freedom Summer, award- winning author Bruce Watson presents powerful testimony about a crucial episode in the American civil rights movement. During the sweltering summer of 1964, more than seven hundred American college students descended upon segregated, reactionary Mississippi to register black voters and educate black children. On the night of their arrival, the worst fears of a race-torn nation were realized when three young men disappeared, thought to have been murdered by the Ku Klux Klan. Taking readers into the heart of these remarkable months, Freedom Summer shines new light on a critical moment of nascent change in America. "Recreates the texture of that terrible yet rewarding summer with impressive verisimilitude." -Washington Post
