V. O. Key’s classic work on Southern politics. The author, one of the nation’s most astute observers, drew on more than five hundred interviews with Southerners to illuminate the political process in the South and in the nation.
Southern Politics in State and Nation explains party alignments within states, internal factional competition, and the influence of the South upon Washington. It also probes the nature of the electorate, voting restrictions, and political operating procedures. This reprint of the original edition includes a new introduction by Alexander Heard and a profile of the author by William C. Havard. It remains one of the most influential books on the subject.
