From Booklist
Oliver Jackson, Joy Jackson's father, was a pilot of oil- and coal-fired vessels, rather than paddleboats, from a little before World War II through 1964. In what began as a genealogy but blossomed into a lively history of New Orleans and life along the lower Mississippi, Joy Jackson portrays her father's cruel childhood and arduous climb to a profession of exacting skill; on the way up, he shipped out to Cuba and New York and was mustered into the Coast Guard for a time. Not exactly Old Jules, but meticulously researched, and readable enough. John Mort
