Plain Folk of the South Revisited
- Used Book in Good Condition
In 1949, Frank Owsley's seminal work, PLAIN FOLK IN THE OLD SOUTH, argued that a thriving middle class represented the majority of southerners and was integral to the region's development. In the spirit of Owsley's effort to expand understanding of the south, the selections included here provide fresh perspectives on the complexities of the plain folk culture. 4 line drawings .
