More than an homage to a gifted historian, it is a stand-alone, interdisciplinary inquiry into just how complicated this thing called 'the South' can be. It's all here, from literature to politics, race to religion, gender to genealogy, Old South to New--with voodoo and a doomed barge canal as added twists. Fascinating and absolutely up-to-date.\"--John Mayfield, author of \u003ci\u003eCounterfeit Gentlemen\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Honors a truly preeminent scholar with essays of very high quality and clear significance. No historian has assayed the 'southern character' more cogently than has Bertram Wyatt-Brown. From start to finish throughout this volume his former students affirm his great achievements and convincingly elaborate on them.\"--James Stewart, Macalester College emeritus Bertram Wyatt-Brown (b. 1932) is one of America's most recognized and quoted historians. His work on honor, war, manhood, and religion, as well as his deeply interdisciplinary approach, has profoundly influenced the way historians understand the South. \u003cbr\u003e The essays in this volume honor Wyatt-Brown and his work by using the concept of southern identities as a jumping-off point, examining a wide range of topics. \u003ci\u003eSouthern Character \u003c\/i\u003eexplores Quaker antislavery in Virginia, Lincoln's sense of southern honor, white and black uses of voodoo, contemporary southern conservatives' struggle for place, and the behavior of Confederate women during Sherman's invasion. \u003cbr\u003e More than a \u003ci\u003efestschrift\u003c\/i\u003e, this volume demonstrates that southern identity is plural, not monolithic, and reveals how the region's uniqueness marginalizes many populations that contribute to \"southernness.\" \u003cb\u003eLisa Tendrich Frank\u003c\/b\u003e is the editor of \u003ci\u003eWomen in the American Civil War: An Encyclopedia. \u003c\/i\u003eShe lives in Tallahassee, Florida. \u003cb\u003eDaniel Kilbride\u003c\/b\u003e, associateprofessor of history at John Carroll University, is the author of \u003ci\u003eAn American Aristocracy: Southern Planters in Antebellum Philadelphia.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eA volume in the series Southern Dissent, edited by Stanley Harrold and Randall M.
