Buying his Fifth Copy

Andy Taggart writes about this week's book signing at Lemuria in Jackson in his ClarionLedger.com blog.

I was there to buy my fifth copy of the book and to pay my respects to a man who defied the odds and the convention of his day to create a two-party system in our state.

Many, many other people obviously share my respect and admiration for Wirt Yerger, and it was very gratifying to see so many folks come out to buy his book. Even more gratifying was the recognition of the combined debt of gratitude all Republicans -- really, all Mississippians -- owe to Wirt Yerger for his and his friends' efforts half a century ago.
