The Promise of the New South Life After Reconstruction by Edward L. Ayers depicts a land of startling contrasts ranging from the Georgia coast to the Tennessee mountains. It was a time of progress and repression, new industries and old ways. The author takes readers from remote Southern towns revolutionized by railways, to the statehouses where Democratic "redeemers" swept away the legacy of reconstruction. He explores every aspect of society, politics, and the economy of the emerging New South. It is an unforgettable account of the New South - a land with one foot in the future and the other in the past.....
