The South in the Building of the Nation: The History of the Southern States - Paperback

by Julian Alvin Carroll Chandler (Editor)

In 1900, there was a general agreement among Southerners on the need for a comprehensive history of the Southern states. It had been and was a nation, sharing beliefs, traditions, and culture. This series, originally published in 1909, is a record of the South's part in the making of the American nation. It portrays the character, the genius, the achievements, and the progress in the life of the Southern people.

This volume discusses the founding and development of the states of Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, West Virginia, and North Carolina.
