Yerger recounts that decade of development in what today can arguably be called the dominant party in Mississippi politics in his new book, "A Courageous Cause: A Personal Story of Modern Republicanism's Birth from 1956 to 1966 in Mississippi."
Co-authored with writer Joseph L. Maxwell III, Yerger informs and entertains the reader through a turbulent time in Mississippi history.
Yerger and Maxwell will be signing copies of the book at Lemuria Books in Jackson on Tuesday, Jan. 18 from 4:30 p.m. until 6 p.m.
"A Courageous Cause" provides a documented first-hand account of a less examined movement occurring simultaneously to the civil rights movement in Mississippi.
Whether you are a Republican wanting to know the roots of the Mississippi GOP or intrigued by Mississippi history, this fresh look at a decade of change provides previously untold stories and insights through the experiences of Yerger, complimented with primary sources research by Maxwell.
