There’s a well-known story about an older fish who swims by two younger fish and asks, “How’s the water?” The younger fish are puzzled. “What’s water?” they ask.
Many of us today might ask a similar question: What’s technology? Technology defines the world we live in, yet we’re so immersed in it, so encompassed by it, that we mostly take it for granted. Seldom, if ever, do we stop to ask what technology is. Failing to ask that question, we fail to perceive all the ways it might be shaping us.
Usually when we hear the word “technology,” we automatically think of digital de-vices and their myriad applications. As revolutionary as smartphones, online shop-ping, and social networks may seem, however, they fit into long-standing, deeply entrenched patterns of technological thought as well as practice. Generations of skeptics have questioned how well served we are by those patterns of thought and practice, even as generations of enthusiasts have promised that the latest innova-tions will deliver us, soon, to Paradise. We’re not there yet, but the cyber utopians of Silicon Valley keep telling us it’s right around the corner.
What is technology, and how is it shaping us? In search of answers to those crucial questions, Not So Fast draws on the insights of dozens of scholars and artists who have thought deeply about the meanings of machines. The book explores such dynamics as technological drift, technological momentum, technological disequilib-rium, and technological autonomy to help us understand the interconnected, inter-woven, and interdependent phenomena of our technological world. In the course of that exploration, Doug Hill poses penetrating questions of his own, among them: Do we have as much control over our machines as we think? And who can we rely on to guide the technological forces that will determine the future of the planet?
doug hill is a journalist and independent scholar who has studied the history and philosophy of technology for more than twenty-five years. His work has appeared in numerous national publications, including the New York Times, the Boston Globe, the Atlantic, Salon, Forbes, Esquire, and the blog “The Question Concerning Technol-ogy.” He is coauthor of the bestseller Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live and lives in Philadelphia.

As a writer and forward-thinking social critic, Lillian Smith (1897–1966) was an astute chronicler of the twentieth-century American South and an early proponent of the civil rights movement. From her home on Old Screamer Mountain overlook-ing Clayton, Georgia, Smith wrote and spoke openly against racism, segregation, and Jim Crow laws long before the civil rights era.
Bringing together short stories, lectures, essays, op-ed pieces, interviews, and excerpts from her longer fiction and nonfiction, A Lillian Smith Reader offers the first comprehensive collection of her work and a compelling introduction to one of the South’s most important writers.
A conservatory-trained music teacher who left the profession to assume charge of her family’s girls’ camp in Rabun County, Georgia, Smith began her literary career writing for a journal that she coedited with her lifelong companion, Paula Snel-ling, successively titled Pseudopodia (1936), the North Georgia Review (1937–41), and South Today (1942–45). Known today for her controversial, best-selling novel, Strange Fruit (1944); her collection of autobiographical essays, Killers of the Dream (1949); and her lyrical documentary, Now Is the Time (1955), Smith was acclaimed and derided in equal measures as a southern white liberal who critiqued her cul-ture’s economic, political, and religious institutions as dehumanizing for all: white and black, male and female, rich and poor. She was also a frequent and eloquent contributor to periodicals such as the Saturday Review, LIFE, the New Republic, the Nation, and the New York Times.
The influence of Smith’s oeuvre extends far beyond these publications. Her legacy rests on her sense of social justice, her articulation of racial and social inequities, and her challenges to the status quo. In their totality, her works propose a vision of justice and human understanding that we have yet to achieve.

“The American people now confront a variety of difficult
problems, many of which were thought to have been
‘solved’ decades ago: discrimination based on race,
sexual identity, and economic or social status; seemingly
unending, escalating wars and ‘rumors of war’; and
episodes of unspeakable human brutality not only in
the United States but throughout the world. Lillian
Smith thought and wrote, often eloquently, about such
problems. As this book demonstrates, much of what she
had to say, beginning as early as the 1930s, is relevant
to our contemporary problems. It also shows, however,
that she was not just ‘a Southerner confronting the South’
but, equally, an American speaking to all of the American
people about their past, present, and, no doubt, future
problems.”—Anne C. Loveland, author of Lillian Smith: A
Southerner Confronting the South
“A Lillian Smith Reader offers the first comprehensive
compilation of Smith’s large and diverse body of writing,

Erskine Caldwell’s novels Tobacco Road (1932) and God’s Little Acre (1933) made the author a popular and critically acclaimed chronicler of the South but also a contro-versial one, due to his work’s political themes and depictions of sexuality. Margaret Bourke-White, fresh from her role as staff photographer for Fortune, became the first female photojournalist for LIFE in 1936, and her iconic images graced its cov-ers and helped solidify the magazine as a preeminent visual periodical.
When Caldwell and Bourke-White married in 1939, they were both celebrities, popular and provocative in equal measures because of their leftist politics and their questioning of American cultural norms. They collaborated on the photo- documentary books You Have Seen Their Faces (1937), North of the Danube (1939), and Say, Is This the U.S.A. (1941). In the summer of 1941, the couple entered Russia on assignment and were there when the Germans invaded on June 22. As a result, Caldwell and Bourke-White were the first Americans to report on the Russian war front by broadcast radio and continued to transmit almost daily newspaper articles about the Russian reaction to the war. Their international celebrity and their clout within the Soviet literary establishment provided them remarkable access to people and places during their five-month stay. Their final collaboration, Russia at War (1942), is a culmination of their work during that time.
Erskine Caldwell, Margaret Bourke-White, and the Popular Front traces and ana-lyzes the couple’s collaborations, the adventures that led to them, the evolving politi-cal stances that informed them, and the aftereffects and influences of their work on their careers and those of others. Both biographically revealing and analytically astute, author Jay Caldwell offers a profound, new perspective on two of America’s most renowned midcentury artists at the peaks of their careers.

Warren H. Manning’s (1860–1938) national practice comprised more than sixteen hundred landscape design and planning projects throughout North America, from small home grounds to estates, cemeteries, college campuses, parks and park sys-tems, and new industrial towns. Manning approached his design and planning proj-ects from an environmental perspective, conceptualizing projects as components of larger regional (in some cases, national) systems, a method that contrasted sharply with those of his stylistically oriented colleagues. In this regard, as in many others, Manning had been influenced by his years with the Olmsted firm, where the founda-tions of his resource-based approach to design were forged. Manning’s overlay map methods, later adopted by the renowned landscape architect Ian McHarg, provided the basis for computer mapping software in widespread use today.
One of the eleven founders of the American Society of Landscape Architects, Manning also ran one of the nation’s largest offices, where he trained several influ-ential designers, including Fletcher Steele, A. D. Taylor, Charles Gillette, and Dan Kiley. After Manning’s death, his reputation slipped into obscurity. Contributors to the Warren H. Manning Research Project have worked more than a decade to assess current conditions of his built projects and to compile a richly illustrated compen-dium of site essays that illuminate the range, scope, and significance of Manning’s notable career with specially commissioned photographs by Carol Betsch.

The Civil War tends to be remembered as a vast sequence of battles, with a turning point at Gettysburg and a culmination at Appomattox. But in the guerrilla the-ater, the conflict was a vast sequence of home invasions, local traumas, and social degeneration that did not necessarily end in 1865. This book chronicles the history of “guerrilla memory,” the collision of the Civil War memory “industry” with the somber realities of irregular warfare in the borderlands of Missouri and Kansas.
In the first accounting of its kind, Matthew Christopher Hulbert’s book analyzes the cultural politics behind how Americans have remembered, misremembered, and re-remembered guerrilla warfare in political rhetoric, historical scholarship, literature, and film and at reunions and on the stage. By probing how memories of the guerrilla war were intentionally designed, created, silenced, updated, and even destroyed, Hulbert ultimately reveals a continent-wide story in which Confederate bushwhackers—pariahs of the eastern struggle over slavery—were transformed into the vanguards of American imperialism in the West.
matthew christopher hulbert is a cultural and military histo-rian of nineteenth-century America and coeditor of The Civil War Guerrilla: Unfolding the Black Flag in History, Memory, and Myth.

“In this first book devoted entirely to Civil War
memory and the guerrilla wars, Matthew Hulbert
skillfully shows how popular impressions of
Confederate guerrillas were exploited by both
friends and enemies and for a variety of ends.
Especially intriguing are the ways in which
Hulbert looks beyond the Civil War generation to
probe the continuing legacy of guerrilla warfare
in the twentieth century. This book makes a
substantial contribution to the field of memory
studies.”—Daniel E. Sutherland, author of A

“This superb book brilliantly traces the meaning

party out of boundsThe B-52’s, R.E.M., and the Kids Who Rocked Athens, Georgia25th Anniversary EditionRodger Lyle Brown
Originally published in 1991, Rodger Lyle Brown’s Party Out of Bounds is a cult classic that offers an insider’s look at the underground rock music culture that sprang from a lazy Georgia college town. Brown uses half-remembered stories, lo-cal anecdotes, and legendary lore to chronicle the 1970s and 1980s and the spawn-ing of Athens bands such as the B-52’s, Pylon, and R.E.M. Their creative momen-tum helped to usher in a new wave of music on a national and international level, putting Athens, Georgia, on the map.
Brown takes the reader on a heady, keg-beer-fueled romp from the South’s dirty back roads and all-night porch parties to the precipice of rock superstardom. This twenty-fifth-anniversary edition includes new and rarely seen photographs by locals on the scene; a foreword by Charles Aaron, former longtime editor and writer at SPIN magazine; and an afterword by producer/engineer and musician David Barbe, drawn from an essay originally published in the Oxford American’s 2015 music issue.
rodger lyle brown lived in Athens from 1977 to 1987. He has worked as an editorial director for Playboy.com and Britannica.com, contributed to publications such as the New York Times and the Village Voice, and is the author of Ghost Dancing on the Cracker Circuit: The Culture of Festivals in the American South.

to packed warehouse dance marathons in

captures both the joy of Athens’s youthful
exuberance and the pain of a generation’s loss
of innocence to cynicism and AIDS.”

whisperin’ bill andersonAn Unprecedented Life in Country MusicBill Anderson with Peter Cooper
Bill Anderson is one of the most successful songwriters, performers, and personali-ties in country music history. Known as “Whisperin’ Bill” to generations of fans, Anderson’s soft vocalizations and spoken lyrics are the hallmarks of his style. A long-standing member of the weekly Grand Ole Opry radio program and stage performance in Nashville, he also discovered future Country Music Hall of Famer Connie Smith and wrote her first hits, toured with Johnny Cash, hosted his own television show, sang eighty charting singles and thirty-seven Top Ten country music hits, and wrote songs recorded by James Brown, Jerry Lee Lewis, the Louvin Brothers, Dean Martin, Aretha Franklin, and many more.

Over the past twenty years, he has won two Country Music Association Song of the Year prizes, been nominated for GRAMMY awards, won the Academy of Country Music’s Song of the Year distinction, and had works recorded by superstars Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Alison Krauss, George Strait, Vince Gill, Elvis Costello, and many more. In 2001, he entered the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Whisperin’ Bill: An Unprecedented Life in Country Music presents a portrait of a long-gone Nashville and introduces readers to the famous and fascinating charac-ters who helped build what is now known as country music. Richly illustrated with black-and-white photos of Anderson interacting with the superstars of American roots music, including such legends as Patsy Cline, Vince Gill, and Steve Wariner, this autobiography highlights Anderson’s trajectory in the business and his influ-ence on the past, present, and future of this dynamic genre.

Crux: The Georgia Series in Literary Nonfiction
lost waxEssaysJericho Parms
For her collection Lost Wax, Jericho Parms borrows her title from a casting method used by sculptors. As such, these eighteen essays, centered on art and memory, offer an investigation into form and content and the language of inno-cence, experience, and loss. Four sections (each borrowing names from the sculp-tures of Degas, Bernini, and Rodin) frame a series of meditations that consider the boundaries of the discernible world and the extremes of the body and the self. Here Parms draws heavily on memories of a Bronx upbringing in the 1980s and 1990s; explorations in Spain, Portugal, Ireland, and the American West; the strug-gle to comprehend race, love, family, madness, and nostalgia; and the unending influence of art, poetry, and music.
Written largely within the galleries of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lost Wax is an inquiry into the ways we curate memory and human experience despite the limits of observation and language. In these essays, Parms exhibits and ex-amines her greatest obsessions: how to describe the surface of marble or bronze; how to embrace the necessary complexities of identity, stillness and movement, life and death—how to be young and alive.
jericho parms is the assistant director of the MFA writing pro-gram at Vermont College of Fine Arts and teaches at Champlain College. Her essays have appeared in Fourth Genre, the Normal School, Hotel Amerika, the American Literary Review, Brevity, and elsewhere.

exquisitely as poems, each piece a lyrical
moment resplendent with imagery. In a work
punctuated by art and music, and tinged with

galleries of adulthood, to create a portrait of a
cultured life borne out of curiosity and relentless
wonder.”—Rigoberto González, author of Butterfly

Crux: The Georgia Series in Literary Nonfiction
fire and stoneWhere Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?Priscilla Long
The questions that drive Priscilla Long’s Fire and Stone are the questions asked by the painter Paul Gauguin in the title of his 1897 painting: Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? These questions look beyond every-day trivialities to ponder the essence of our origins.
Using her own story as a touchstone, Long explores our human roots and how they shape who we are today. Her personal history encompasses childhood as an identical twin on a dairy farm on the Eastern Shore of Maryland; the turmoil, social change, and music of the 1960s; the suicide of a sister; and a life in art in the Pacific Northwest. Here, memoir extends the threads of the writer’s individual and very personal life to science, to history, and to ancestors, both literary and genetic, back to the Neanderthals.
Long uses profoundly poetic personal essays to draw larger connections and to ask compelling questions about identity. Framed by four distinctive sections, Fire and Stone transcends genre and evolves into a sweeping elegy on what it means to be human.
priscilla long is a Seattle-based writer, writing teacher, and editor. She is the author of Crossing Over: Poems, The Writer’s Portable Mentor: A Guide to Art, Craft, and the Writing Life, and Where the Sun Never Shines: A History of America’s Bloody Coal Industry.

“Lucky for us, Priscilla Long fancied herself a thinker
from a young age. In Fire and Stone, she displays
a lifetime’s scintillating affair with science and
with the arts and letters, on topics as varied as
genomes and banjos and Neanderthals. Beyond
autobiography, Long suggests ways we might
discover who we are for ourselves. Her collection
is an inspiration, dense with layers of invention
and mystery and sparkling with her wise heart.”
—Sonya Lea, author of Wondering Who You Are:
A Memoir
“I have always thought of Priscilla Long as a science
writer, one who explains the most fundamental
and difficult processes of science in lucid and
elegant prose. But Fire and Stone shows me that
science is just one aspect of her exploration of the
deepest questions related to her self and to our
selves. She is finally a philosophical writer, one
who employs science, history, autobiography, and
her fine literary sensibility in an engaging search
for meaning.”—Robert Wilson, editor of the

waveformTwenty-First-Century Essays by WomenEdited by Marcia Aldrich
Waveform: Twenty-First-Century Essays by Women celebrates the role of women essayists in contemporary literature. Historically, women have been instrumental in moving the essay to center stage, and Waveform continues this rich tradition, further expanding the dynamic genre’s boundaries and testing its edges. With thirty essays by thirty distinguished and diverse women writers, this carefully constructed anthology incorporates works ranging from the traditional to the experimental.
Waveform champions the diversity of women’s approaches to the structure of the essay—today a site of invention and innovation, with experiments in col-lage, fragments, segmentation, braids, triptychs, and diptychs. Focused on these explorations of form, Waveform is not wed to a fixed theme or even to women’s experiences per se. It is not driven by subject matter but highlights the writers’ interaction with all manner of subject and circumstance through style, voice, tone, and structure.
This anthology presents some of the women who are shaping the essay today, mapping an ever-changing landscape. It is designed to place essays recently written by women such as Roxane Gay, Cheryl Strayed, Margo Jefferson, Jaquira Diaz, and Eula Biss into the hands of those who have been waiting patiently for something they could equally claim as their own.
marcia aldrich is a professor of English at Michigan State University. She is the author of Girl Rearing: Memoir of a Girl-hood Gone Astray and Companion to an Untold Story (Georgia), winner of the Association of Writers & Writing Programs Award for Creative Nonfiction.

“Marcia Aldrich has done more than sample the
bounty of brilliant women’s essays. Through
Waveform, she stakes a claim for the significance
of the essay in contemporary literature by
focusing on women’s fusion of a singular voice,
personal experience, and formal innovation.
Waveform should come with a warning label,
though: these essays are so compelling you’ll
be tempted to read heedlessly and breathlessly
through the collection. But beware. This work
is potent. Each essay delivers the blow of the
wave as it breaks, exposing the hungry wave
rider to the churn and danger beneath the swells.
A herald of a new field, fully realized, and a
triumphant display of its power.”
—Leigh Gilmore, author of The Limits of
Autobiography: Trauma and Testimony
“Rich in unexpected detail, these essays refresh
our sense of how women map the world.
Readers join writers on journeys of self-discovery
that disconcert as well as reward.”

Flannery O’Connor may now be acknowledged as the “Great American Catho-lic Author,” but this was not always the case. With Creating Flannery O’Connor, Daniel Moran explains how O’Connor attained that status, and how she felt about it, by examining the development of her literary reputation from the perspectives of critics, publishers, agents, adapters for other media, and contemporary readers.
Moran tells the story of O’Connor’s evolving career and the shaping of her liter-ary identity. Drawing from the Farrar, Straus & Giroux archives at the New York Public Library and O’Connor’s private correspondence, he also concentrates on the ways in which Robert Giroux worked tirelessly to promote O’Connor and change her image from that of a southern oddity to an American author exploring universal themes.
Moran traces the critical reception in print of each of O’Connor’s works, find-ing parallels between her original reviewers and today’s readers. He examines the ways in which O’Connor’s work was adapted for the stage and screen and how these adaptations fostered her reputation as an artist. He also analyzes how—on reader review sites such as Goodreads—her work is debated and discussed among “common readers” in ways very much as it was when Wise Blood was first published in 1952.
daniel moran is supervisor of social studies and media, East Brunswick, New Jersey, Public Schools. His work on G. K. Ches-terton and John Ford has been published in a variety of teaching guides, including Poetry for Students, Short Stories for Students, and Drama for Students. He has taught English at Rutgers Univer-sity and currently teaches history at Monmouth University.

Inspired Georgia is a unique collection of Georgia’s contemporary poets and photographers that engages the history and culture of the state, while serving as a document of some of the best and most powerful pieces penned by Georgia poets and images shot by Georgia photographers in recent years. Representing a wide range of styles, attitudes, and backgrounds, the poets either hail from Geor-gia or have spent a considerable amount of time in their adopted state. Chosen from previously published collections, representing various stages of the poets’ careers, these poems exemplify the great talent, insight, and creativity present in Georgia letters.
A geographically diverse representation of Georgia photographers is included, showcasing a wide range of talent well versed in making insightful and intimate images. The interweaving of photographs with poems (and poems with photo-graphs) creates spaces of possibility, where what’s in the mind’s eye might (or might not) meet what’s found in front of the camera’s lens.
While complementary, the poems and photographs in Inspired Georgia are not in dialogue with each other—they echo, resonate, and reflect the places they inhabit. They pay homage to the ecology, terrain, and culture of Georgia, which in turn draws in, nurtures, and fuels the intellect of its many and varied artists.

Opposite page: Diane Kirkland, Moody Swamp
This collection bristles and hums with the rugged resilience one encounters in southern and Appalachian fiction, where ghosts of loved ones and livestock alike haunt an underworld of lonely trails. Set in West Virginia, the stories take up resi-dence with rural characters who defend their mailboxes against teenagers, bathe and feed their bedridden elders, and circle the inflated orbs of love and desire in high school gymnasiums. Whole lifetimes flare in an instant as characters scramble to sift through the past’s wreckage to find some small miracle in the present.
If there is nostalgia, it’s for a South without billboards, talk shows, and children with iPods dangling from their ears. It’s for a South where you can go pick a ripe tomato to slice for the mayonnaise on your sandwich because you found time to plant a garden. And if there’s grace, it is in the careful wading through a shifting current to reach possibilities snagged at the bottom of a trotline.
In lean, muscular prose, Lisa Graley pays homage to the daily chores that make up a lifetime. With delicate precision, she renders the boundaries, as thin as the blade of a shovel, between fear and courage, rejection and compassion.
lisa graley is an assistant professor of English and humanities at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and the author of the book of poetry Box of Blue Horses. She was awarded an ATLAS (Awards to Louisiana Artists and Scholars) sabbatical in 2009–10 by the Louisiana Board of Regents.

“You’ll see how beautiful it is in the morning—jungle all around us,” says one of the characters in Anne Raeff ’s story collection, referring to the way that the jungle that threatens can also provide solace. The jungle in these stories is both meta-phorical and real, taking the reader from war-torn Europe to Bolivia and from suburban New Jersey to Vietnam. Raeff examines how war and violence, like the jungle, seep into our lives, even when we are no longer in danger and long after the war is over.
While struggling with fear, danger, and displacement, the characters of The Jungle around Us form strange and powerful bonds in distant and unlikely places. A family that has escaped Vienna ends up on the edge of the Amazon, where the parents fight yellow fever and the daughter falls in love with a village boy. Two sisters learn lessons about race and war during the Columbia University riots of 1968. A young girl confronts death when her former babysitter is mysteriously murdered. In Paraguay, two adult sisters confront their loneliness while their pre-cocious young charge faces off with a monkey. Raeff ’s stories are about embracing the world though the world contains everything we fear.
anne raeff is a high school teacher at East Palo Alto Academy, where she teaches English and history. Her stories and essays have appeared in the New England Review, ZYZZYVA, and Guernica, among others. Her first novel is Clara Mondschein’s Melancholia.

sun & urnPoems by Christopher SalernoSelected by Thomas Lux
Christopher Salerno’s fourth collection of poems, Sun & Urn, is a book made from the wild stuff of grief and loss. Readers will find in these lyric poems a peculiar force pushing beyond the obvious. Sad, tender, whimsical, this book mines the poet’s personal journey through grief for a universal look at how we as human beings handle our greatest losses. Coursing through this work is the clarity of vulnerability. With an idiosyncratic and inquisitive lyricism, Sun & Urn examines, repositions, and makes art from the odd scraps left over after a father’s sudden death, from infertility and divorce, and from the hope of new love.
christopher salerno resides in Caldwell, New Jersey, where he serves as associate professor in the creative writing and MFA programs at William Paterson University.

The National Poetry Series
trébuchetPoems by Danniel SchoonebeekSelected by Kevin Prufer
Trébuchet is the much-anticipated follow-up to Danniel Schoonebeek’s debut book of poems, American Barricade, which was named one of 2014’s ten best books of poetry by Poets & Writers and hailed as a “groundbreaking first book that stands to influence its author’s generation” by Boston Review.
The poems in Trébuchet—which takes its name from the catapult used to break down walls and barriers during medieval wars—are at once combative and incendi-ary, tackling contemporary politics in a more direct, personal way than Schoone-beek ever has before. Addressing gun violence, poverty, fascism, surveillance, white privilege, the protest movement, censorship, American history, torture, and net neutrality, Schoonebeek’s writing is marked by a unique use of slang and jargon, manipulation of white space, and precise rhythm on the page. His poems have been praised by many critics for their momentum, obsession with weird language, and the precision of their enjambments and end-stopped lines.
Though American Barricade and Trébuchet speak to one another and map an evolving poetics, Schoonebeek’s second collection is a departure from the aesthet-ics and obsessions that defined his first, which was invested in the politics of family dynamics and the insistence in this country on obtaining power and wealth. If American Barricade was the book that wanted to kick open the door, Trébuchet is the book that wants to tear the door off its hinges.
danniel schoonebeek is the author of American Barricade and C’est la guerre and is a recipient of the Ruth Lilly and Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Poetry fel-lowship from the Poetry Foundation. His work has appeared in the New Yorker, Poetry, Kenyon Review, and Tin House. He hosts the Hatchet Job reading series in Brooklyn and edits the PEN Poetry Series.
“A fierce talent and vision.”
—Maggie Nelson, author of The Argonauts
“These poems live in that fierce place where
the worlds of Paul Celan and Federico
García Lorca intersect (and then burn). At
once expansive, agile, and deadly serious,
Schoonebeek writes with fugue-like sonic
complexity and truly frightening political
vision. This is one of the best books I’ve
read in a long time. A hot gold wire of rage
burns through it.”—Kevin Prufer

historic rural churches of georgiaSonny Seals and George S. HartForeword by President Jimmy CarterIntroduction by John Thomas Scott
Aspects of Georgia’s unique history can only be told through its extant rural churches. As the Georgia backcountry rapidly expanded in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the churches erected on this newly parceled land became the center of community life. These early structures ranged from primitive outbuildings to those with more elaborate designs and were often constructed with local, hand-hewn materials to serve the residents who lived nearby. From these rural communities sprang the villages, towns, counties, and cities that informed the way Georgia was organized and governed and that continue to influence the way we live today.
Historic Rural Churches of Georgia presents forty-seven early houses of worship from all areas of the state. Nearly three hundred stunning color photographs capture the simple elegance of these sanctuaries and their surrounding grounds and cemeteries. Of the historic churches that have survived, many are now in various states of distress and neglect and require restoration to ensure that they will continue to stand. This book is a project of the Historic Rural Churches of Georgia organization, whose mission is the preservation of historic rural churches across the state and the documenta-tion of their history since their founding. If proper care is taken, these endan-gered and important landmarks can continue to represent the state’s earliest examples of rural sacred architecture and the communities and traditions they housed.
sonny seals and george s. hart, both of Atlanta, are the founders of Historic Rural Churches of Georgia, a nonprofit formed in 2013 with the purpose of researching and documenting some of Georgia’s most historic and architecturally significant rural church-es. Historic Rural Churches of Georgia was awarded the 2016 National Society Daugh-
ters of the American Revolution Historic Preservation Medal for the state of Georgia. www.hrcga.orgjohn thomas scott is a professor of history and director of the Honors Program PhD at Mercer University.

“Times are changing, both culturally and

volunteer photographers, Seals and Hart have
done a magnificent job in bringing to us a beautiful
selection of rural churches in all their glory—or, as
is sometimes the case, faded glory. Open, view,

Someone dies. What happens next?One family inters their matriarch’s ashes on the floor of the ocean. Another
holds a memorial weenie roast each year at a green burial cemetery. An 1898 ad for embalming fluid promises, “You can make mummies with it!” while a leading con-temporary burial vault is touted as impervious to the elements. A grieving mother, 150 years ago, might spend her days tending a garden at her daughter’s grave. Today, she might tend the roadside memorial she erected at the spot her daughter was killed. One mother wears a locket containing her daughter’s hair; the other, a neck-lace containing her ashes.
What happens after someone dies depends on our personal stories and on where those stories fall in a larger tale—that of death in America. It’s a powerful tale that we usually keep hidden from our everyday lives until we have to face it.
American Afterlife by Kate Sweeney reveals this world through a collective portrait of Americans past and present who find themselves personally involved with death: a klatch of obit writers in the desert, a funeral voyage on the Atlantic, a fourth-generation funeral director—even a midwestern museum that takes us back in time to meet our death-obsessed Victorian progenitors. Each story illumi-nates details in another until something larger is revealed: a landscape that feels at once strange and familiar, one that’s by turns odd, tragic, poignant, and some-times even funny.
kate sweeney is a producer for NPR affiliate WABE 90.1 FM in Atlanta, Georgia. She has won five Edward R. Murrow awards and a number of Associated Press awards for her work.

american afterlifeEncounters in the Customs of MourningKate Sweeney
Photo by Kaylinn Gilstrap Photography
“As radio reporter and producer Sweeney notes
in this unsettling, compassionate volume on
American mourning customs, death was once a
ubiquitous part of American life; the Victorians
raised mourning to an art form. . . . Her stories
originate mostly in the South, but have universal
relevance. Sweeney writes with a deft touch
and with empathy for mourners, whose stories
she relays with clarity and care.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Respectfully illuminating both the ludicrousness
and the significance of mourning and its
accompanying memorialization rituals,
Sweeney reports the unsavory details alongside
the poignancy of grief and sorrow. Written with
the grim wit and appreciation of investigative
reporter Mary Roach, the author delivers
informative history on the murky business of
death. A considerate exploration of mourning,
just haunting enough to attract those with a
penchant for macabre oddities.”

ugapress.org
“I am learning the alchemy of grief—how it must be carefully measured and doled out, inflicted—but I have not yet mastered this art,” writes Judith Ortiz Cofer in The Cruel Country. This richly textured, deeply moving, lyrical memoir centers on Cofer’s return to her native Puerto Rico after her mother has been diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer.
Cofer’s work has always drawn strength from her life’s contradictions and duali-ties, such as the necessities and demands of both English and Spanish, her travels between and within various mainland and island subcultures, and the challenges of being a Latina living in the U.S. South. Interlaced with these far-from-common ten-sions are dualities we all share: our lives as both sacred and profane, our negotiation of both child and adult roles, our desires to be the person who belongs and also the person who is different.
What we discover in The Cruel Country is how much Cofer has heretofore held back in her vivid and compelling writing. This journey to her mother’s deathbed has released her to tell the truth within the truth. She arrives at her mother’s bedside as a daughter overcome by grief, but she navigates this cruel country as a writer—an acute observer of detail, a relentless and insistent questioner.
judith ortiz cofer is the Regents’ and Franklin Professor of English and Creative Writing Emerita at the University of Georgia. She is also the author of The Latin Deli: Telling the Lives of Barrio Women, An Island Like You: Stories of the Barrio, Woman in Front of the Sun: On Becoming a Writer; and many other books. The University of Georgia Press published her first novel, The Line of the Sun, in 1989.

university of georgia press | fall & winter 2016 new in paperback
No southern food enthusiast should be without this gathering of 1,300 flavorful recipes for such classic dishes as fried chicken, cornbread, pickled watermelon rinds, and sweet potato pie.
Southern Cooking had its origins in Henrietta Dull’s immensely popular cooking column in the Atlanta Journal, whose readers faithfully clipped its recipes. The demand for reprints of perennial favorites or early, hard-to-find dishes prompted Mrs. Dull to compile them into her now-famous book. Not only does it include in-dividual recipes, but it also suggests menus for various occasions and holidays. Her famous Georgia Christmas Dinner, for instance, consists of grapefruit, roast turkey, dry stuffing, dry rice, turkey gravy, candied sweet potatoes, buttered green peas, cranberry jelly, celery hearts, hot biscuits, sweet butter, syllabub, and cake.
Mrs. Dull was one of the most sought-after caterers in Atlanta even before she began her newspaper column. Her vast, practical knowledge of food and its preparation, and her embrace of new, but never gimmicky, innovations in cooking served her readers well. Upon Mrs. Dull’s death in 1964 at the age of one hundred, the Atlanta Journal said that her book was “the standard by which regional cooks have been measured since 1928.” Southern Cooking is the starting place for anyone in search of authentic dishes done in the traditional style.
mrs. s. r. dull (1863–1964) was the longtime editor of the home economics page of the Atlanta Journal. Her achievements during her one hundred years include organizing the first departments of home economics in Georgia schools and colleges, conducting cooking schools throughout the South, and promoting locally grown products throughout the country.

sabbath creekA Novel by Judson Mitcham
dare sayPoems by Tod Marshall
Sabbath Creek is the story of Lewis Pope, a fourteen-year-old boy thrust into an adult world of heartache and brokenness. When his beautiful but distant mother takes him on an aimless journey through south Georgia, the cerebral and sensitive Lewis is forced to confront latent fears—scars left from the emotional abuse of an alcoholic father and the lack of comfort from a preoccupied mother—that crowd his interior world.
Sabbath Creek is more than a coming-of-age novel. And while Mitcham provides a nuanced look at the relationship between a white adolescent boy and a black old-timer his novel tran-scends the tired theme of race relations in the South. This com-passionate, smart, powerful work of fiction touches the pulse of the human spirit. It travels from the ruined landscape of south Georgia and takes us all the way through the ruined landscape of a broken heart. judson mitcham’s poems have appeared in Poetry, the Georgia Review, and Harper’s. His novels, The Sweet Everlasting and Sab-bath Creek, are both winners of the Townsend Prize for Fiction. He teaches writing at Mercer University.
“A transcendent coming-of-age story that feels unshackled to
any particular time. Its sense of place, however, is pungently
particular, infused with the surface languor and latent violence
of the Deep South. . . . This spare, lovely novel, while generous in
humor, is anchored by sorrow and interspersed with portents
of tragedy.”—New York Times Book Review
“Mitcham brings vividly to life the rural community of Sabbath
Creek, and he handles the emotional and psychological complexi-
ties of this story with remarkable subtlety. He also has important
things to say about the redemptive power of human kindness
and friendship. A powerfully realized, deeply satisfying novel;
enthusiastically recommended.”—Library Journal
Eschewing irony for direct statement, the poems in Tod Marshall’s 2002 debut collection imagistically, musically, and passionately articulate a faith in human transcendence. From the mud of our formation (“Choir”) to the dust of our dying (“After Kandinsky”), Marshall’s poems lyrically obsess over how the broken and violated can envision and speak a heaven of which we know. tod marshall is the Washington State poet laureate for 2016–18. He teaches at Gonzaga University and is the author of Range of the Possible, a collection of interviews with contem-porary poets. Marshall’s poetry, essays, interviews, and reviews are widely published.
“In Dare Say, Marshall announces something entirely unexpected yet
dearly, dearly welcome: the future of modernism. In these poems,
energies beloved by Cummings and Pound, masses deployed by
Williams and Stevens, combine anew, refreshed by Marshall’s
deeply intelligent care. Dare Say resounds as a clarion and challenge
to all poets of the rising generation.”—Donald Revell
“In Marshall’s brilliant first book, he dares the reader to see, hear,
and claim the divinity available in the world. Here are poems as
bound to the past as to the present, at home as much within the
visual as the musical, instructed as much by Bach and Botticelli as
by the convulsive beauty of Kandinsky. Rarely have I seen a debut
of such range and mastery. I’m grateful for the vast humanity and
intelligence of this book. Read it!”—Claudia Keelan

teaching equalityBlack Schools in the Age of Jim CrowAdam Fairclough
In Teaching Equality, Adam Fairclough provides an overview of the enormous contributions made by African American teachers to the black freedom movement in the United States. Beginning with the close of the Civil War, when “the efforts of the slave regime to prevent black literacy meant that blacks . . . associated education with liberation,” Fairclough explores the development of educational ideals in the black community up through the years of the civil rights movement. He reveals the complicated lives of these educators who, in the face of a prejudice-based social order and a history of oppression, sus-tained and inspired the minds and hearts of generations of black Americans.
“An impressive sampling of primary and
secondary sources that both scholars and
general readers will find useful.”

with ballot and bayonetThe Political Socialization of American Civil War SoldiersJoseph Allan Frank
In this groundbreaking study of what motivated soldiers to enlist and fight in this nation’s most bloody conflict, Jo-seph Allan Frank argues that politics was central to the development of the armies of the North and South: motivating soldiers, molding the organization, defining the qualifications of officers, shaping fighting styles, and framing the nature of relations between the army and society. His book re-lies on the letters and diaries of more than a thousand soldiers, with the author using social science categories for identifying politically aware soldiers and then defin-ing and classifying the levels of political socialization.
“Frank has extensively researched soldiers
and letters and his book is enlightening in
many ways. . . . One finishes the book with
a deeper understanding of how thoroughly
the armies of North and South were
steeped in political ideology.”

to have and to holdSlave Work and Family Life in Antebellum South CarolinaLarry E. Hudson Jr.
Looking closely at both the slaves’ and masters’ worlds in low, middle, and up-country South Carolina, Larry E. Hudson Jr. covers a wide range of economic and social topics related to the opportunities given to slaves to produce and trade their own food and other goods. Filled with de-tails of slaves’ social values, family forma-tion, work patterns, “internal economies,” and domestic production, To Have and to Hold is based on a wide variety of primary and secondary sources, emphasizing wherever possible the recollections of for-mer slaves. Although their private world was never immune to intervention from the white world, Hudson demonstrates a relationship between the agricultural productivity of slaves, in family situations that range from simple to complex forma-tions, and the accumulation of personal property and social status within slave communities.
“No reader will come away from this
book without having reconsidered and
reimagined much of the conventional
scholarly wisdom surrounding the slave
family. . . . Hudson merits praise for this
provocative study.”—H-SHEAR

slavery in the caribbean francophone worldDistant Voices, Forgotten Acts, Forged IdentitiesEdited by Doris Y. Kadish
Twelve scholars representing a variety of academic fields contribute to this study of slavery in the French Caribbean colonies, which ranges historically from the 1770s to Haiti’s declaration of independent statehood in 1804. Including essays on the impact of colonial slavery on France, the United States, and the French West Indies, this collection focuses on the events, causes, and effects of violent slave rebellions that occurred in Saint-Domingue, Guadeloupe, and Martinique. Based on official records and public documents, historical research, literary works, and personal accounts, these essays present a detailed view of the lives of those who experienced this period of rebel-lion and change.

the signifying eyeSeeing Faulkner’s ArtCandace Waid
A bold book, built of close readings, strik-ing in its range and depth, The Signify-ing Eye shows Faulkner’s art take shape in sweeping arcs of social, labor, and aesthetic history. This work delights in literacy as the oral meets the written and the abstract opens as a site to see narra-tive. Steeped in history, this book locates a heightened reality that goes beyond representation to bring Faulkner’s novels, stories, and drawings into visible form through Whistler, Beardsley, Gorky, and de Kooning. Visionary and revisionist, Waid has painted the proverbial big picture, changing the fundamental way that both the making of modernism and the avant-garde will be seen.
“With The Signifying Eye Waid will take her
place among the most important of all
Faulkner critics, and all of us will have to

william gilmore simms and the american frontierEdited by John Caldwell Guilds and Caroline Collins
William Gilmore Simms (1807–70), the antebellum South’s foremost author and cultural critic, was the first advocate of regionalism in the creation of national literature. Now being rediscovered by a new generation of scholars, Simms has come to be acknowledged as the ancestral father of modern southern literature. This collection of essays emphasizes his multifaceted por-trayal of America’s westward migration and examines his depictions of the frontier from traditional and theoretical perspectives.

The urban origins of American Judaism began with daily experiences of Jews, their responses to opportunities for social and physical mobility as well as constraints of discrimination and prejudice. Deborah Dash Moore explores Jewish participation in American cities and considers the implications of urban living for American Jews across three centuries. Looking at synagogues, streets, and snapshots, she contends that key features of American Judaism can be understood as an imaginative product grounded in urban potentials.
Jews signaled their collective urban presence through synagogue construction, which represented Judaism on the civic stage. Synagogues housed Judaism in action, its rituals, liturgies, and community, while simultaneously demonstrating how Jews Judaized other aspects of their collective life, including study, education, recreation, sociability, and politics. Synagogues expressed aesthetic aspirations and translated Jewish spiritual desires into brick and mortar. Their changing architecture reflects shifting values among American Jews.
Concentrations of Jews in cities also allowed for development of public religious practices that ranged from weekly shopping for the Sabbath to exuberant dancing in the streets with Torah scrolls on the holiday of Simhat Torah. Jewish engagement with city streets also reflected Jewish responses to Catholic religious practices that temporarily transformed streets into sacred spaces. This activity amplified an urban Jewish presence and provided vital contexts for synagogue life, as seen in the captivat-ing photographs Moore analyzes.
deborah dash moore is the Frederick G. L. Huetwell Professor of History and Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan.

That Americans take to sports with a spiritual fervor is no secret. Athletics has even been called a civil religion for how it permeates our daily lives as we chase our own dreams of glory or watch others compete. Few would deny our national devotion to sports; however, many would gloss over it as all of a piece. To do that, as William J. Baker shows us, is to miss the fascinating variety of experiences at the intersection of sports and religion—and the ramifications of such on a national citizenry defined, as Baker writes, “by the team they cheer on Saturday and the church they attend on Sunday.” With nods to modern and ancient history, Baker looks at the ever-changing relationship between faith and sports through vignettes about devout athletes, coaches, and journalists.
Of Gods and Games offers an accessible entrée into some of the larger issues embedded in American culture’s sports–religion connection. Baker first consid-ers two Christian athletes who have engaged sports and religion on fundamen-tally different terms: Shelly Pennefather, one of the dominant women’s basket-ball players of the late 1980s, who left the sport for life as a cloistered nun; and Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow, who has used his college and pro football careers as a platform for evangelizing. In discussing basketball coach Dean Smith (University of North Carolina) and football coaches Steve Spurrier (University of South Carolina) and Bill McCartney (University of Colorado) Baker looks at how each strove to honor faith amid sometimes complicated personal lives and ever-crushing professional demands. Finally, Baker looks at how faith inspired such sportswriters as Grantland Rice, who sprinkled his stories with religious allusions, and Watson Spoelstra, who struck a deal with God at his daughter’s deathbed (she recovered) and subsequently devoted his off-hours and retirement years to charity work.
william j. baker is a professor emeritus of history at the University of Maine. His books include Playing with God: Religion and Modern Sport, If Christ Came to the Olympics, Jesse Owens: An American Life, and Sports in the Western World.

UnCivil Wars
driven from homeNorth Carolina’s Civil War Refugee Crisis David Silkenat
Examining refugees of Civil War–era North Carolina, Driven from Home reveals the complexity and diversity of the war’s displaced populations and the inadequate responses of governmental and charitable organizations as refu-gees scrambled to secure the necessities of daily life. In North Carolina, writes David Silkenat, the relative security of the Piedmont and mountains drew pro-Confederate elements from across the region. Early in the war, Union invaders established strongholds on the coast, to which their sympathizers fled in droves. Silkenat looks at five groups caught up in this floodtide of emigration: enslaved African Americans who fled to freedom; white Unionists; pro-Confederate whites—both slave owners (who often forced their slaves to migrate with them) and non–slave owners; and young women, often from more besieged areas of the South, who attended the state’s many boarding schools. From their varied expe-riences, a picture emerges of a humanitarian crisis driven by mobility, shaped by unprecedented economic pressures and disease vectors, and exacerbated by governments unwilling or unable to provide meaningful relief.
For anyone seeking context to current refugee crises, Driven from Home has much to say about the crushing administrative and logistical challenges of aid work, the illusory nature of such concepts as home fronts and battle lines, and the ongoing debate over links between relief and dependence.
david silkenat is a lecturer in the School of History, Classics, and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh. He is the au-thor of Moments of Despair: Suicide, Divorce, and Debt in Civil War Era North Carolina.

slavery on the peripheryThe Kansas-Missouri Border in the Antebellum and Civil War Eras Kristen Epps
Slavery on the Periphery focuses on nineteen counties on the Kansas-Missouri border, tracing slavery’s rise and fall from the earliest years of American settle-ment through the Civil War along this critical geographical, political, and social fault line. Kristen Epps explores slavery’s emergence from an upper South slaveholding culture and its development into a small-scale system character-ized by slaves’ diverse forms of employment, close contact between slaves and slaveholders, a robust hiring market, and the prevalence of abroad marriages. She demonstrates that space and place mattered to enslaved men and women most clearly because slave mobility provided a means of resistance to the stric-tures of daily life. Mobility was a medium for both negotiation and confronta-tion between slaves and slaveholders, and the ongoing political conflict between proslavery supporters and antislavery proponents opened new doors for such resistance. Slavery’s expansion on the Kansas-Missouri border was no mere intellectual debate within the halls of Congress. Its horrors had become a visible presence in a region so torn by bloody conflict that it captivated the nineteenth-century American public.
Foregrounding African Americans’ place in the border narrative illustrates how slavery’s presence set the stage for the Civil War and emancipation here, as it did elsewhere in the United States.
kristen epps is an assistant professor of history at the Univer-sity of Central Arkansas. Her work has been published in the edited collection Bleeding Kansas, Bleeding Missouri: The Long Civil War on the Border.

charleston and the emergence of middle-class culture in the revolutionary eraJennifer L. Goloboy
Too often, says Jennifer L. Goloboy, we equate being middle class with “niceness”—a set of values frozen in the antebellum period and centered on long-
term economic and social progress and a close, nurturing family life. Goloboy’s case study of merchants in Charleston, South Carolina, looks to an earlier time to establish the roots of middle-class culture in America. She argues for a defini-tion more applicable to the ruthless pursuit of profit in the early republic. To be middle class then was to be skilled at survival in the market economy.
What prompted cultural shifts in the early middle class, Goloboy shows, were market conditions. In Charleston, deference and restraint were the bywords of the colonial business climate, while rowdy ambition defined the post-Revolu-tionary era, which in turn gave way to institution building and professionalism in antebellum times. Goloboy’s research also supports a view of the Old South as neither precapitalist nor isolated from the rest of American culture, and it challenges the idea that post-Revolutionary Charleston was a port in decline by reminding us of a forgotten economic boom based on slave trading, cotton exporting, and trading as a neutral entity amid warring European states.
This fresh look at Charleston’s merchants lets us rethink the middle class in light of the new history of capitalism and its commitment to reintegrating the Old South into the world economy.
jennifer l. goloboy is an independent scholar based in Min-neapolis, Minnesota, specializing in the history of the early American middle class. She is the editor of Industrial Revolu-tion: People and Perspectives. Goloboy earned her PhD in the history of American civilization from Harvard University.

anglo-native virginiaTrade, Conversion, and Indian Slavery in the Old Dominion, 1646–1722 Kristalyn Marie Shefveland
The 1646 Treaty of Peace with Necotowance in Virginia fundamentally changed relationships between Native Americans and the English settlers of Virginia. Virginians were unique in their interaction with Native peoples in part because of their tributary system, a practice that became codified with the 1646 Treaty of Peace with the former Powhatan Confederacy. This book traces English estab-lishment of tributary status for its Native allies and the phrasing and concept of foreign Indians for non-allied Natives.
Kristalyn Marie Shefveland examines Anglo-Indian interactions through the conception of Native tributaries to the Virginia colony, with particular emphasis on the colonial and tributary and foreign Native settlements of the Piedmont and southwestern Coastal Plain between 1646 and 1722. Shefveland contends that this region played a central role in the larger narrative of the colo-nial plantation South and of the Indian experience in the Southeast. The trans-formation of Virginia from fledgling colony on the outpost of empire to a frontier model of English society was influenced significantly by interactions between the colonizers and Natives.
Many of the powerful families that emerged to dominate Virginia’s history gained their start through Native trade and diplomacy in this transformative period, particularly through the Byrd family, whose members emerged as key figures in trade, slavery, diplomacy, and conversion. By the second half of the seventeenth century, the transformation of Virginia set forth political, economic, racial, and class distinctions that typified the state for the next three centuries.
kristalyn marie shefveland is an assistant professor of history at the University of Southern Indiana. She has been a contributing essayist to Virginia Women: Their Lives and Times (Georgia); The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of the American En-lightenment; and Beyond Two Worlds: Critical Conversations on Language and Power in Native North America.

remapping second-wave feminismThe Long Women’s Rights Movement in Louisiana, 1950–1997 Janet Allured
Scholars of second-wave feminism often center their research on northern thought and political activity and usually overlook the vibrant pockets of activ-ism that existed elsewhere. In Remapping Second-Wave Feminism, Janet Allured attempts to reshape the national narrative by focusing on the grassroots women’s movement in the South, particularly in Louisiana.
This book delves into unexplored origins of the feminist movement. While acknowledging the ways that the fight for African American civil rights produced the women’s liberation movement in the South—and subsequently in the North—Allured also locates other wellsprings of the movement that were particularly im-portant to southern change-seekers, especially preexisting women’s organizations such as the League of Women Voters, the YWCA, and liberal churches. For many southern feminists, being part of a faith tradition that emphasized social justice reform is what ultimately propelled them into working for gender equality. Allured highlights key figures in Louisiana; divisions based on regional, sexual, and ideo-logical differences; access to abortion; lawsuits that had national implications that emanated from southern women; and the fight against sexual assault and domestic violence. Through detailed archival and oral history research, she has forged a new path, making this a foundational work for the field. Remapping Second-Wave Feminism will amend how we reflexively view feminism as a northern phenom-enon, giving proper due to the southern contribution.

Politics and Culture in the Twentieth-Century SouthA Sarah Mills Hodge Fund Publication
new negro politics in the jim crow southClaudrena N. Harold
This study details how the development and maturation of New Negro politics and thought were shaped not only by New York–based intellectuals and revolutionary transformations in Europe, but also by people, ideas, and organizations rooted in the South. Claudrena N. Harold probes into critical events and developments below the Mason-Dixon Line, sharpening our understanding of how many black activists—along with particular segments of the white American Left—arrived at their views on the politics of race, nationhood, and the capitalist political economy.
Focusing on Garveyites, A. Philip Randolph’s militant unionists, and black anti-imperialist protest groups, among others, Harold argues that the South was a largely overlooked “incubator of black protest activity” between World War I and the Great Depression. The activity she uncovers had implications beyond the region and adds complexity to a historical moment in which black southerners provided exciting organizational models of grassroots labor activism, assisted in the revitalization of black nationalist politics, engaged in robust intellectual arguments on the future of the South, and challenged the governance of historically black colleges.
To uplift the race and by extension transform the world, New Negro southerners risked social isolation, ridicule, and even death. Their stories are reminders that black southerners played a crucial role not only in African Americans’ revolutionary quest for political empowerment, ontological clarity, and existential freedom but also in the global struggle to bring forth a more just and democratic world free from racial subjugation, dehumanizing labor practices, and colonial oppression.
claudrena n. harold is an associate professor of history at the Uni-versity of Virginia. She is the author of The Rise and Fall of the Garvey Movement in the Urban South, 1918–1942 and coeditor, with Deborah E. McDowell and Juan Battle, of The Punitive Turn: New Approaches to Race and Incarceration.

Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation
calculating property relationsChicago’s Wartime Industrial Mobilization, 1940–1950 Robert Lewis
Combining theories of calculation and property relations and using an array of archival sources, this book focuses on the building and decommissioning of state-owned defense factories in World War II–era Chicago. Robert Lewis’s rich trove of material—drawn from research on more than six hundred federally funded wartime industrial sites in metropolitan Chicago—supports three major conclu-sions. First, the relationship of the key institutions of the military-industrial complex was refashioned by their calculative actions on industrial property. The imperatives of war forced the federal state and the military to become involved in industrial matters in an entirely new manner. Second, federal and military in-vestment in defense factories had an enormous effect on the industrial geography of metropolitan Chicago. The channeling of huge lumps of industrial capital into sprawling plants on the urban fringe had a decisive impact on the metropolitan geographies of manufacturing. Third, the success of industrial mobilization was made possible through the multiscale relations of national and locational interac-tion. National policy could only be realized by the placing of these relations at the local level.
Throughout, Lewis shows how the interests of developers, factory engineers, corporate executives, politicians, unions, and the working class were intimately bound up with industrial space. Offering a local perspective on a city perma-nently shaped by national events, this book provides a richer understanding of the dynamics of wartime mobilization, the calculative actions of political and business leaders, the social relations of property, the working of state-industry relations, and the making of industrial space. robert lewis is a professor of geography at the University of Toronto. His books include Chicago Made: Factory Networks in the Industrial Metropolis; Manufac-turing Suburbs: Building Work and Home on the Metropolitan Fringe; and Manu-facturing Montreal: The Making of an Industrial Landscape, 1850 to 1930.

the carpetbaggers of kabul and other american-afghan entanglementsIntimate Development, Geopolitics, and the Currency of Gender and GriefJennifer L. Fluri and Rachel Lehr
The 2001 invasion of Afghanistan by United States and coalition forces was fol-lowed by a flood of aid and development dollars and “experts” representing well over two thousand organizations—each with separate policy initiatives, geopo-litical agendas, and socioeconomic interests. This book examines the everyday actions of people associated with this international effort, with a special empha-sis on small players: individuals and groups who charted alternative paths outside the existing networks of aid and development. This focus highlights the complex-ities, complications, and contradictions at the intersection of the everyday and the geopolitical, showing how dominant geopolitical narratives influence daily life in places like Afghanistan—and what happens when the goals of aid workers or the needs of aid recipients do not fit the narrative.
Specifically, this book examines the use of gender, “need,” and grief as driv-ers for both common and exceptional responses to geopolitical interventions. Throughout this work, Jennifer L. Fluri and Rachel Lehr describe intimate encounters at a microscale to complicate and dispute the ways in which Afghans and their country have been imagined, described, fetishized, politicized, vilified, and rescued. The authors identify the ways in which Afghan men and women have been narrowly categorized as perpetrators and victims, respectively. They discuss several projects to show how gender and grief became forms of currency that were exchanged for different social, economic, and political opportunities. Such entanglements suggest the power and influence of the United States while illustrating the ways in which individuals and groups have attempted to chart alternative avenues of interaction, intervention, and interpretation.
jennifer l. fluri is an associate professor of geogra-phy at the University of Colorado, Boulder. rachel lehr is a postdoctoral fellow in the Depart-ment of Geography at the University of Colorado, Boulder.

masculinities and marketsRaced and Gendered Urban Politics in MilwaukeeBrenda Parker
Studies of urban neoliberalism have been surprisingly inattentive to gender. Brenda Parker begins to remedy this by looking at the effect of new urbanism,
“creative class,” and welfare reform discourses on women in Milwaukee, a tradi-tionally progressive city with a strong history of political organizing. Through a feminist partial political economy of place (FPEP) approach, Parker conducts an intersectional analysis of urban politics that simultaneously pays attention to a number of power relations. She argues that in the 1990s and 2000s, the city’s business-friendly agenda—although couched in uplifting rhetoric—strengthened existing hierarchies not only in class and race but also in gender.
Taking on municipal elites’ adoption of Richard Florida’s “creative class” thesis, for example, Parker looks at the group Young Professionals of Milwaukee, exposing the way that a “creative careers” focus advances fundamentally mascu-line values and interests. She concludes with a case study that shows how gender and race mattered in the design, enactment, and contestation of an uneven urban redevelopment project. At once a case study of the city and a theorization of ur-ban neoliberalism, Masculinities and Markets highlights how urban politics and discourses in U.S cities have changed over the years.
brenda parker is an assistant professor in the College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

in the public’s interestEvictions, Citizenship, and Inequality in Contemporary DelhiGautam Bhan
This book studies the recent legacy of basti “evictions” in Delhi—mass clearings of some of the city’s poorest neighborhoods—as a way to understand how the urban poor are disenfranchised in the name of “public interest” and, in the case of Delhi, by the very courts meant to empower and protect them. Studying bastis, says Gautam Bhan, provokes six clear lines of inquiry applicable to studies of urbanism across the global south.
The first is the long-standing debate over urban informality and illegality: the debate’s impact on conceptions and practices of urban planning, the produc-tion of space, and the regulation of value. The second is a set of debates on “good governance,” read through their intersections with ideas of “planned develop-ment” within rapidly transforming cities. The third is the political field of urban citizenship and the possibilities of substantive rights and belonging in the city. The fourth is resistance and the ability of a city’s subaltern residents to struggle against exclusion. The two remaining inquiries both cut across and unify the first four. One of these is the role of the judiciary and the relationships between law and urbanism in cities of the global south. The other is the relationship between democracy and inequality in the city.
What emerges about Delhi in particular is a multilayered double standard in attention to, and enforcement of, property laws. Rights are lost, citizenship is unequal and differentiated, the promise of development is refused, and poverty and inequality are reproduced and deepened. The task at hand, says Bhan, is not just to explain evictions but also to listen to what they are telling us about “the city that is as well as the city that can be.”
gautam bhan is a senior consultant for academics and research at the Indian Institute for Human Settlements. He is the coeditor of the forthcoming Routledge Companion to Planning in the Global South; coauthor (with Kalyani Menon-Sen) of Swept off the Map: Surviving Eviction and Resettlement in Delhi; and coeditor (with Arvind Narrain) of Because I Have a Voice: Queer Politics in India.

bitter tastesLiterary Naturalism and Early Cinema in American Women’s WritingDonna M. Campbell
Challenging the conventional understandings of literary naturalism defined pri-marily through its male writers, Donna M. Campbell examines the ways in which American women writers wrote naturalistic fiction and redefined its principles for their own purposes. Bitter Tastes looks at examples from Edith Wharton, Kate Chopin, Willa Cather, Ellen Glasgow, and others and positions their work within the naturalistic canon that arose near the turn of the twentieth century.
Campbell further places these women writers in a broader context by trac-ing their relationship to early film, which, like naturalism, claimed the ability to represent elemental social truths through a documentary method. Women had a significant presence in early film and constituted 40 percent of scenario writers—in many cases they also served as directors and producers. Campbell explores the features of naturalism that assumed special prominence in women’s writing and early film and how the work of these early naturalists diverged from that of their male counterparts in important ways.
donna m. campbell is a professor of English at Washington State University.
