WALKER McSPADDEN Author of "Famous Painters of America, " Etc. COMPLIMENTS OF THE SOUTHERN PUBLICATION SOCIETY RICHMOND ATLANTA COPIBIGHT, 1912, BY THE Southern Publication Society. •A TO THE READER IHIS little book is offered as a key to a wonderful storehouse— unlocking the entire range of history and life past and present of the Southern States. The people and events that have made the name of the South famous have at last been recorded fully and truthfully in a monumental Library known as THE SOUTH IN THE BUILDING OF THE NATION. Here in twelve generous volumes, contributed to by the ablest authorities in every State, you will find a wonderful story, not only for the South as a whole, but also for each individual State. It is a story of progress and develop- ment—misunderstanding and war— reunion, peace, and pros- perity — wr it large on the annals of our Nation for the last three hundred years. The very wealth of material, however, is apt to confuse the reader who sees this splendid Library for the first time. There is so much of interest and value that it is an "em- barrassment of riches." For this reason the present Read- ing and Study Course has been prepared, to point out some of its important features. Are you interested in History? Here is a story fascinat- ing as fiction, yet true in every detail, showing the part played by the South in the building of the Nation— showing how each State was created out of the wilderness— and telling of every phase of State life for three centuries. Are you a student of Politics and Economics? Some of the keenest thinkers and most incisive writers in America have here traced for you the South's share in these very important fields. Are you interested in Sociology, Racial Problems, or Social Movements? Here again you will find interesting and valuable lines of research. Each and every subject, such as Education, Science, Art, Religion, Temperance, 3 Labor, the Professions, etc., receive thorough-going treat- ment at the hands of the writers and experts best fitted to handle them. Perhaps you are of literary bent? The literary achieve- ments of each State are traced, as well as those of the South as a whole. The criticisms and estimates are scholarly and illuminating; while well-written biographies place you in intimate touch with the career of every important writer. An entire volume is devoted to examples of the work of the South's fiction writers. « If you are especially interested in culture and aesthetics, you will find sections devoted to Music, Painting, Sculpture, Pottery, and Architecture. In a word, this comprehensive Library provides abundant material for every reading taste. The Courses outlined in the present handbook are not exhaustive, but merely suggestive. A similar work prepared for a single State, a few months ago, ran into twenty-six pages. Where we have fifteen States and the general sub- ject to treat, space forbids us to give more than a working outline under any one head. But enough is given to enable the reader to follow congenial lines for himself. Not only individual readers, but also study clubs, reading circles, and classes in schools and colleges, may find some- thing here of help and mental stimulus. What, indeed, could be more practical, now that the South has come again into her own, than a course in Southern history and affairs? To every careful reader and earnest student, North and South, this book is offered as a quick guide and introduction to a fountain source of fact — THE SOUTH IN THE BUILDING OF THE NATION.
