South to America: A Journey Below the Mason-Dixon to Understand the Soul of a Nation

Even those who have never lived there can rattle off a list of signifiers: the Civil War, Gone with the Wind, the Ku Klux Klan, plantations, football, Jim Crow, slavery. The research behind South to America draws together biographical detail, personal testimony, and historical context to show how the central story changed over time. The result links the journey below the mason-dixon to understand the soul of a nation with debates in biography & autobiography and history, showing where public institutions and private experience meet.
