Book Description:

From the Constitutional Convention to the Civil War to the civil rights movement, the South has exerted an outsized influence on American government and history while being distinctly anti-government. Nation within a Nation features cutting-edge work by lead scholars in the fields of history, political science, and human geography, who examine the causes real and perceived for the South's perpetual state of rebellion, which remains one of its most defining characteristics.
