Rezension zu „The American South “
'Ranging from the colonial era to the present day, and incorporating a broad range of historical topics, this impressive collection presents readers with extracts from some of the most influential historical writings on the American South. Each of the fifteen chronological sections is introduced and contextualized by a leading scholar in the field. For students and general readers alike, The American South is the first place they ought to look for what historians past and present have had to say about southern history.' -- Betty Wood, University of Cambridge 'Dan Letwin and his editorial colleagues have selected a wonderful series of readings that introduce students not only to some of the classic works of southern history but to some of the most up-to-date scholarship. Not only students but teachers of southern history will benefit from this intelligent collection and the wise commentaries that accompany it.' -- Tony Badger, University of Cambridge 'Ranging from the colonial era to the present day, and incorporating a broad range of historical topics, this impressive collection presents readers with extracts from some of the most influential historical writings on the American South.
