When Mound Bayou fell on hard times, many of its residents joined the Great Migration north in search of better jobs and lives. Some Mound Bayou residents stopped in St. Louis and never left again. Read Hamilton's engaging historical account of Mound Bayou's birth, through its heyday, to the eventual journey of some of its citizens to new lives in St. Louis. Tullia Brown Hamilton, a St. Louis resident, has a Ph.D. in American Studies from Emory University, where she was a Ford Foundation Fellow.
