Mentioning over four thousand Southern writers, this 1907 history spans the centuries from the establishment of the Jamestown colony to the time of publication. The editor’s and contributors’ frank and unapologetic, patronizing racist attitudes, as well as their defenses of slavery, will be astonishing to the contemporary reader, but the text itself is of value in understanding the prevalence of certain social and educational attitudes in the “New South” after the Civil War.
