Description

Born in Mississippi in 1891, Ray Lum virtually defined the role of livestock trader and auctioneer. He was by necessity a survivor--an individual with a canny wit, an intuitive insight into human nature, and the ability to talk a great story. Here is his story, told in his own words, with a foreword by Eudora Welty. 15 photographs.
