{"product_id":"itawamba-county-9781531661083","title":"Itawamba County","description":"Itawamba County takes its name from Chief Itawamba, a prominent leader of the Chickasaw Indians. Formed in 1836 from ceded Chickasaw Indian lands, the county was settled by hardy, industrious pioneers seeking new opportunities in a new land. The legacy of these hardworking settlers continues with the photographic history portrayed in Images of America: Itawamba County. Beautiful and immense hardwood forests that provided shelter for its pioneers later became the source of a logging boom, with sawmills and oxen being a familiar sight. Life in Itawamba County was not all work and no play, however. The county has a rich musical heritage: local musician Jordan Cockrell won first place in the World Championship Fiddling Contest held at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis; the \"First Lady of Country Music,\" Tammy Wynette, and jazz great Jimmie Lunceford, known as the \"King of Syncopation,\" were both born here; and the roots of the \"King of Rock and Roll,\" Elvis Presley, go deep in Itawamba County.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531661083\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Mona Robinson Mills","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36657020797084,"sku":"9781531661083","price":27.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_1a986cc3-0667-4bc1-bcc5-1c4a35b111f6.jpg?v=1603889558","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/itawamba-county-9781531661083","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
