Description:
As we move toward the year 2000, Southern values have become American values. Southern politicians lead both political parties; the Southern Baptist church is the fastest-growing denomination in the country; country music has swept the North; and the South is the leading area of population growth and economic growth in the nation today. How has the South come to occupy this most important and influential position? Should we be celebrating or criticizing the triumph of the South? And what truly is "the South"?
Expand description
In "one of the best portrayals of the South in years" (Washington Post Book World), Applebome's forays take him to catfish farms and new casinos, to country music festivals, neo-Confederate gatherings, and into the very heart of the controversy over the flying of the Confederate flag, separating the myths from the realities.
