Abstract

An authoritative popular history that places the state in regional and national context. Alabama is a state full of contrasts. On the one hand, it has elected the lowest number of women to the state legislature of any state in the union; yet according to historians it produced two of the ten most important American women of the 20th century-Helen Keller and Rosa Parks. Its people are fanatically devoted to conservative religious values; yet they openly idolize tarnished football programs as the source of their heroes. Citizens who are puzzled by Alabama's maddening

Abstract

In The Tallons, the second book in his " Pearl County" series, William March continues to hone his distinctive style but for the first time creates a work that follows a continuous, linear narrative. Here, March' s masterful development of the theme of jealousy highlights his growing maturity and ambition as a writer.Set in a rural Alabama backwater, The Tallons tells the story of two farm boys, Andrew and Jim Tallon. Their placid and predictable life is upended by a girl from Georgia, Myrtle Bickerstaff. The conflict which engulfs these three is built up from a series of carefully chosen and

Abstract

Originally published in 1943, The Looking-Glass is William March' s story of a small Alabama town in the early days of the twentieth century. In it, he returns to a nonlinear style that interweaves the stories and voices of numerous characters. Manny Nelloha, the junkman' s son, tries to elude his mixed-race heritage by changing his name and personality. Wesley Boutwell is a good-natured but idle war veteran who spends his Saturdays with " the girls" at Mattress May' s. A haughty and irascible young genius, Rance Palmiller, is driven to a self-destructive rage when a hobo takes pity on him. Yo
