The Mississippi River is one of the great attractions in the United States, and the route that parallels the river, the Great River Road, is one of the best drives in America. What makes it so attractive? Why do so many people keep coming back? In this episode, Klinkenberg digs into the major reasons travel along the Mississippi River can be so rewarding, from the rich history along its banks to the inviting small towns and vibrant big cities, to the incredible range of people who live and shape life along the river. In the Mississippi Minute, I share my thoughts about the value of eating at locally-owned restaurants.
