About This Book

A comprehensive regional study that surveys the Southern United States’ geography, population types, and economic foundations to explain social conditions after emancipation. It examines mountain and poor white communities, planter leadership, and the cotton-centered agricultural system; analyzes African American character, labor, education, and everyday life; and treats crime, lynching, race association, and segregation. The work evaluates actual and comparative wealth, labor practices including peonage, immigration, and conflicting attitudes toward education. It closes by proposing material, political, and moral remedies aimed at alleviating poverty, reducing racial friction, and promoting social and economic development across the region.
