In part a memoir (Morris's difficult 103-year-old father had just died and she travels home to the Midwest partly to try to understand him), this book captures the rhythms, history and byways of the upper Mississippi (the journey ends in Paris Landing, Tennessee). An engaging travel companion, Morris (Nothing to Declare) seeks solace aboard a houseboat with Tom and Jerry (the crew).
