Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Southern Horizons This Book needed to be written. There is no doubt whatever about that. And yet I wish that I might sit down with you and chat about how it came to be written and by a Damyankee from Connecticut. A revolution is brewing in Southern farms and factories, and it is high time that all of us look into its causes and consider its effects. A new economic era is beginning in which new crops will be grown and new goods manufactured. More important than the new techniques or the new working conditions or the new markets is the new spirit that today inspires the South. I have attempted to reappraise Southern resources in the terms of these new values. But you should be warned that this is no exhaustive economic treatise. You will look in vain for charts of prices and wages or statistical tables of production and consumption. This is not that kind of book at all. This is a story of men, practical men of vision. It is a first-hand account of some of the leaders in this Southern revolution; revealing stories of the men who are doing unusual things in fresh ways.
