About the Cover This breathtaking midair view of the mighty Mississippi River shows Natchez during The Great Mississippi River Balloon Race. The image comes from Ken Murphy, the Bay St. Louis photographer whose gorgeous, award- winning coffee-table books feature his native state (www.kenmurphysouth.com). The Big River has shaped much of Mississippi's history and culture, including its music and food. For some great ways and places to enjoy the river and its heritage, see The Mighty Mississippi…Lore, Legend & History story.
