This is a collection of twelve essays by Southern authors and activists. In many ways, this is a 21st version of "I'll Take My Stand: the South and the Agrarian Tradition." These are Southerners who advocate a free and independent South. This book explains their ideological positions in their own words. It explains a unique Southern identity born within these United States. Finally, it lays out a vision as to how the South can achieve a Free and Independent status as a Nation-State, with a right of self-determination for its people.
