Richard Montgomery, left, and Mike Shain visit with Dan Whittle, seated, the author of "Canalou: People, Culture, Bootheel Town." A donation of $7,500 from the Montgomery family to the Center for Regional History, which published Whittle's book, will enable 500 copies to be distributed to high schools in the Bootheel and in neighboring states. For more on the presentation of the donation at Southeast Missouri State University's Sikeston campus, see Thursday edition of the Standard Democrat.
