Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Studies in History Economics and Public Law, Vol. 104 In this study of the causes, manifestations, and results of the Populist movement as they have appeared in Georgia, the writer has been more intent upon illustrating some of the main currents of American life in the past fifty years than upon presenting a fragment of state history. It was a nation-wide movement. Indeed its fundamental causes were to some extent common to the industrialized world, though in large measure its problems were peculiar to the United States. They presented different aspects in different sections of the country and in particular localities. Such variations affected the course and the results of the movement, nationally as well as locally. These must needs be considered at close range before a true perspective of the whole can be gained. Hence the present study. Doubtless, if the truth were known, the writer was led to select Georgia as a special field because of the natural ties of birth and rearing, and then rationalized his choice as a good one on the grounds that the Southern phases of the movement had formerly received least attention from the historian and that Georgia offered a particularly fertile field for the study of these phases. The home of Tom Watson, the scene of some of the fiercest struggles between the "Bourbons" and the "wool-hat boys," often a strategic factor in Populist national councils, and typical in many ways of the Solid-South group of states, it seems well suited as a point of entree into the field of special investigation on the subject.
