In each decade since about 1860, the Atchafalaya River had drawn off more water from the Mississippi than it had a decade before. By the late 1940’s the volume approached one-third, as the Atchafalaya widened and deepened, eroding headword, offering the Mississippi an increasingly attractive alternative, it was preparing for nothing less than absolute capture: before long it would take all of the Mississippi, and itself become the master stream.

Because of this, the shock, violence, and gore used in his stories made his stories to become immensely influential at the time of their publication and still remain important literary works today.
