The Mind of the South

Ever since its publication in 1941, The Mind of the South has been recognized as a path-breaking work of scholarship and as a literary achievement of enormous eloquence and insight in its own right. From its investigation of the Southern class system to its pioneering assessments of the region\u27s legacies of racism, religiosity, and romanticism, W. J. Cash\u27s book defined the way in which millions of readers— on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line—would see the South for decades to come.https://scholar.dominican.edu/cynthia-stokes-brown-books-american-history/1049/thumbnail.jp
