Dixie's Forgotten People, New Edition: The South's Poor Whites (Minorities in Modern America)
"Wayne Flynt may not have started the late—twentieth—century wave of historical research on postbellum Southern poor whites, but he was the first to catch it. In engaging and accessible prose Dixie's Forgotten People surveyed what was in 1979 a largely unknown landscape and laid out an agenda for research that is still not completed. Flynt’s retrospective introduction to this new edition is itself worth the price of the book." —John Reed, University of North Carolina
