Defending Dixie
Essays in Southern History and Culture
Dr. Clyde Wilson
Defending Dixie is a selection from Dr. Clyde Wilson’s voluminous writings about the South—past, present, and future—over a period of time more than thirty years. The admiring view of Dixie presented here is rare at the present day. Dr. Wilson writes from a belief that the South is a living and long-lasting reality that continues to offer a valuable alternative vision to Americans of the 21st century. More importantly, as he says of Dixie, “there are plenty of good people who love her still.”
