by Johnson Jones Hooper (Author)
Hooper's picaresque novel follows the misadventures of Captain Simon Suggs, a charming but crooked con artist in antebellum Alabama. Through a series of comic episodes and tall tales, Suggs manages to scam his way through life, all while evading the law and the disapproval of his upstanding neighbors. This book is a classic of Southern humor and a slice of life in a bygone era.
