The Enduring South: Subcultural Persistence in Mass Society

First published in 1972, <i>The Enduring South</i> challenges the conventional wisdom that economic development, urbanization, and the end of racial segregation spelled the end of a distinctive Southern culture. In this edition, John Reed updates the public opinion data to the 1980s and reinforces the books original conclusions: Southerners are different and are likely to stay that way.
