Bøker av Allen Tullos

Tullos explores the recent history of one of the nation's most conservative states to reveal its political imaginary-the public shape of power, popular imagery, and individual opportunity-and asks if the coming years will see a transformation of the "Heart of Dixie."

Provides a richly descriptive social, historical, and cultural account of the Carolina Piedmont - the area between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Coastal Plain - over the course of 150 years. By examining the social and religious culture of the region, Allen Tullos illuminates the lives of the working men and women whose "habits of industry" shaped their world.
