Our guest today is author and political mind Bill Crawford, a Canton native that has served as a daily newspaper reporter, a statewide political campaign operative, and an IHL Board leader over the years. A graduate of Millsaps and Mississippi State, Bill is Mississippi to the bone and knows a thing or two about the political history and tendencies of the Magnolia State. He’s here to talk about his recent book, A Republican's Lament, in which Crawford weaves a unique and eventful story about his home state’s enduring dilemmas and a clarion call for its better possibilities.
