Why Milliken’s Bend should be remembered — 2 Comments

  1. Ms. Barnickle,

    Very much enjoyed your blog and your book. I bought the latter twice, as I lost it the first time. I’m working on a book of my own, working title “On Freedom Road: Bicycle Encounters on the Underground Railroad.” It’s the product of three long bicycle tours on Underground Railroad routes, though granted that MB was after the time of the UGRR. The link below is the day we went near the MB site.

    Quick question: I had read that Grant tried three times to divert the river. There’s Grants Canal just past the bridge, and Lake Providence. Do you know the third?

    All the best,
    David Goodrich
