    Description

    Discover the spirit of Oxford, Mississippi through the Wildsam Oxford Field Guide, a richly crafted companion that blends storytelling, culture, and local insight. This thoughtfully designed guide explores Faulkner’s legacy, small-town traditions, Hill Country history, and life around Oxford’s iconic Square.

    Inside, you’ll find interviews, archival notes, and first-person essays from notable writers. Illustrated maps lead you to literary landmarks, local favorites, and the essential places that shape this storied Southern town. Curated recommendations highlight authentic Oxford experiences, from longstanding institutions to hidden gems.

    "From university halls to nearby Hill Country hamlets, this corner of the state has coalesced its own misfit intelligentsia, one that can be honest and optimistic, expectations be damned. For so many, they didn't fall into the place. They chose it. And for them, it's more than enough."

    From courthouse benches to country ponds, bartenders to flower farmers, the guide captures why so many choose Oxford for its creative energy, sense of community, and enduring character.
