Southern Road
Author: Anthony John Moore
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 149909700X

Book Description
This document is a social history of South Africa from the mid-fifties to the middle seventies, written from the viewpoint of a young English-speaking male living in the predominantly Afrikaans-speaking society. In particular, its a nostalgic meander down the streets of conservative Pretoria and the much more hip Johannesburg, from the perspective of someone who lived in both of these cities during this revolutionary period, while also touching on events that helped shape the history of the world, such as the Vietnam war and the liberalization of the African continent from its former colonial powers.

This lively, handsomely illustrated, first-of-its-kind book celebrates the food of the American South in all its glorious variety—yesterday, today, at home, on the road, in history.

The Road to Redemption
Author: Michael Perman
Publisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 0807864048
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
One of the most dramatic episodes in American history was the attempt to establish a two-party political system in the South during Reconstruction. Historians, however, have never systematically analyzed the region's political process during that era. Michael Perman undertakes this task, arguing that the key to understanding Reconstruction politics can be found in the factions that developed inside the two parties. Not only did these factions play a crucial role in determining each party's policies and electoral strategies, but they also shaped the course of the South's overall political development during this critical period. In the first section of Road to Redemption, Perman offers a provocative and original analysis of the characteristics and priorities of the two parties, explaining how the South's untried and volatile party system operated during Reconstruction. By the mid-1870s this system had begun to collapse. The book's concluding section explains how and why the Republican party and Reconstruction were overthrown and describes the Democratic ascendancy that replaced them. Perman's innovative study integrates the history of Reconstruction and Redemption and challenges the prevailing interpretation of who the Redeemers were and how they rose to power.

A Road Running Southward
Author: Dan Chapman
Publisher: Island Press
ISBN: 1642831948
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
"Engaging hybrid - part lyrical travelogue, part investigative journalism and part jeremiad, all shot through with droll humor." --The Atlanta Journal Constitution In 1867, John Muir set out on foot to explore the botanical wonders of the South, from Kentucky to Florida. One hundred and fifty years later, veteran Atlanta reporter Dan Chapman recreated Muir's journey to see for himself how nature has fared since Muir's time. He uses humor, keen observation, and a deep love of place to celebrate the South's natural riches. But he laments the long-simmering struggles over misused resources and seeks to discover how Southerners might balance surging population growth with protecting the natural beauty Muir found so special. A Road Running Southward is part travelogue, part environmental cri de coeur--a passionate appeal to save one of the loveliest and most biodiverse regions of the world by understanding what we have to lose if we do nothing.
