Description

In 1001 eminently readable mini-essays. Dixicologists John and Dale Reed illuminate every nook and cranny of this fertile land and culture, clarifying with an authoritative but humorous touch what we all should know about the region but probably don't. From Stonewall Jackson to Mahalia Jackson, from William Byrd to "Free Bird," 1001 Things Everyone Should Know About the South covers it all. 1001 Things Everyone Should Know About the South is an irreverent, idiosyncratic, and information-filled catalog of all things Southern - the people, places, history, traditions, food, and foibles that fascinate Americans both north and south of the Mason-Dixon Line.
