Description

Between 1940 and 1943, Eudora Welty set several stories and a novella along the Natchez Trace. She also wrote about this historic roadway in her 1944 essay, 'Some Notes on River Country.' Taking a cue from Digital Yoknapatawpha and like projects, Tracing Welty maps Welty's references to the Trace and uses historical materials to place them in different interpretive contexts.
