penn center A History Preserved Orville Vernon Burton with Wilbur Cross Foreword by Emory S. Campbell

The inspiring and engrossing story behind the first school for former slaves, from the Civil War through the civil rights movement “This is an extraordinary book. It is the most complete history of Penn Center that has ever been written. Many stories and famous academic accounts have been concerned indirectly with Penn Center over its 150-year history, but this book goes straight to its heart.”—from the foreword by Emory S. Campbell “From the first arrival of northern abolitionists who came to the South Carolina sea islands in 1862 to establish schools for free slaves down to the present, the institutions that evolved into Penn Center have been the social and cultural center of St. Helena Island. Dedicated from the beginning to preparing residents for equal citizenship and civil rights, Penn Center has continued that mission faithfully, as recorded in this splendid history.”—James M. McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era

A Sarah Mills Hodge Fund Publication

The Gullah people of St. Helena Island still relate that their people wanted to “catch the learning” after northern abolitionists founded Penn School in 1862, less than six months after the Union army captured the South Carolina sea islands. In this broad history Orville Vernon Burton and Wilbur Cross range across the past 150 years to reacquaint us with the far-reaching impact of a place where many daring and innovative social justice endeavors had their beginnings.

Penn Center’s earliest incarnation was as a refuge where escaped and liberated enslaved people could obtain formal liberal arts schooling, even as the Civil War raged on sometimes just miles away. Penn Center then earned a place in the history of education by providing agricultural and industrial arts training for African Americans after Reconstruction and through the Jim Crow era, the Great Depres-

sion, and two world wars. Later, during the civil rights movement, Penn Center made history as a safe meeting place for organizations like Martin Luther King Jr.’s Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Peace Corps. Today, Penn Center continues to build on its long tradition of leadership in progressive causes. As a social services hub for local residents and as a museum, conference, and education complex, Penn Center is a showcase for activism in such areas as cultural, material, and environmental preservation; economic sustainability; and access to health care and early learning.

Here is all of Penn Center’s rich past and present, as told through the experiences of its longtime Gullah inhabitants and countless visitors. Including forty-two extraordinary photographs that show Penn as it was and is now, this book recounts Penn Center’s

many achievements and its many challenges, reflected in the momentous events it both experienced and helped to shape.

confederate odyssey The George W. Wray Jr. Civil War Collection at the Atlanta History Center Gordon L. Jones

A richly illustrated story of the South’s war effort told through one of the world’s finest collections of its artifacts

Throughout his life, Atlanta resident George W. Wray Jr. (1936–2004) built a collection of more than six hundred of the rarest Confederate artifacts including not just firearms and edged weapons but also flags, uniforms, and accoutrements. Today, Wray’s collection forms an integral part of the Atlanta History Center’s holdings of some eleven thousand Civil War artifacts. Confederate Odyssey tells the story of the Civil War through the Wray Collection. Analyzing the collection as material evidence, Gordon L. Jones demonstrates how a slave-based economy on the cusp of industrialization attempted to fight an industrial war.

The broad range of the collection includes many rare or one-of-a-kind objects, including a patent model and early inventions by gun maker George W. Morse, the bloodstained coat of a seventeen-year-old South Carolina soldier, battle flags made of cloth imported from England, and arms made in Georgia, the heart of the Confederacy’s burgeoning military-industrial complex.

As Civil War history, Confederate Odyssey benefits from the study of material remains as it bridges the domains of professional scholars and amateur collectors such as Wray.

The book tells of the stories, significance, and context of these artifacts to general readers

and Civil War buffs alike. The Wray Collection is more than a collection of relics; it is a tale of historical truths revealed in small details.

gordon l. jones is senior military historian and curator at the Atlanta History Center.

the blue, the gray, and the green Toward an Environmental History of the Civil War Edited by Brian Allen Drake

Using environmental history to understand the Civil War in new ways “A valuable collection of essays by an all-star lineup of scholars, this volume will make an important contribution to environmental history and Civil War history. I know of no other collection that explores so deeply and creatively the intersection of these two fields. This pathbreaking book is imaginative, probing, insightful, and full of surprises. It is certain to intrigue environmental and Civil War historians alike and certain to prompt even more inquiry into the event that, more than any other, has defined the history of the United States.”—Mark Fiege, coauthor of Republic of Nature

The Blue, the Gray, and the Green is one of only a handful of books to apply an environmental history approach to the Civil War. This book explores how nature—disease, climate, flora and fauna, and other factors—affected the war and also how the war shaped Americans’ perceptions, understanding, and use of nature.

The contributors use a wide range of approaches that serve as a valuable template for future environmental histories of the conflict.

In his introduction, Brian Allen Drake describes the sparse body of environmental history literature related to the Civil War and lays out a blueprint for the theoretical basis

of each essay. Kenneth W. Noe emphasizes climate and its effects on agricultural output and the battlefield; Timothy Silver explores the role of disease among troops and animals; Megan Kate Nelson examines aridity and Union defeat in 1861 New Mexico; Kathryn Shively Meier investigates soldiers’ responses to disease in the Peninsula Campaign; Aaron Sachs, John C. Inscoe, and Lisa M. Brady examine philosophical and ideological perspectives on nature before, during, and after the war; Drew Swanson discusses the war’s role in production and landscape change in piedmont tobacco country; Mart A. Stewart

Joshua K. Callaway Edited by Judith Lee Hallock

Personal insights into the daily life of the common Civil War soldier “Callaway proved a perceptive and thoughtful witness to the crisis. His letters home are rich and incisive, not only because they detail soldier life in the Army of the Tennessee, but because they highlight painful separations endured by countless husbands and fathers on both sides of the war.”—Civil War History “[Hallock’s] editing of this book is wonderful and adds a nice narrative interlude to the letters. . . . By reading these letters you get the feeling that you have truly come to know Joshua Callaway. . . . An excellent book to read to further one’s appreciation of the life of the common Civil War soldier.”—Civil War Courier “A valuable addition to Confederate history. It is highly recommended.”—Civil War News “These unusually revealing Civil War letters vividly convey the hardships of camp life, the emotional highs and lows of the battlefield, and the various attachments to home, family, and community. Callaway was an articulate and perceptive observer of the conditions and people around him. This is a rich and very readable collection, superbly edited.”—John C. Inscoe, author of Mountain Masters: Slavery and the Sectional Crisis in Western North Carolina

From the Kentucky Campaign to Tullahoma, Chickamauga to Missionary Ridge, Confederate junior officer Joshua K. Callaway took part in some of the most critical campaigns of the Civil War. His twice-weekly letters home, written between April 1862 and November 1863, chronicle his gradual change from an ardent Confederate soldier to a weary veteran who longs to be at home.

Whether writing about combat, illness, encampments, or homesickness, Callaway makes even the everyday aspects of soldiering interesting. This large collection, seventy-four letters in all, is a valuable historical reference that provides new insights into life behind the front lines of the Civil War.

The Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction

bright shards of someplace else Stories by Monica McFawn Winner of the Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction

Stories of people who seek understanding but find trouble in their encounters with others

In the eleven kaleidoscopic stories that make up Bright Shards of Someplace Else, Monica McFawn traces the combustive, hilarious, and profound effects that occur when people misread the minds of others. The characters—an array of artists, scientists, songwriters, nannies, horse trainers, and poets—often try to pin down another’s point of view, only to find that their own worldview is far from fixed.

The characters in McFawn’s stories long for and fear the encroachment of others. A young boy reduces his nanny’s phone bill with a call, then convinces her he can solve

her other problems. A man who works at a butterfly-release business becomes dangerously obsessed with solving a famous mathematical proof. A poetry professor finds himself entangled in the investigation of a murdered student. In the final story, an aging lyricist reconnects with a renowned singer to write an album in the Appalachian Mountains, only to be interrupted by the appearance of his drug-addicted son and a mythical story of recovery.

By turns exuberant and philosophically adroit, Bright Shards of Someplace Else reminds us of both the limits of empathy and its absolute necessity. Our misreadings of others may be unavoidable, but they themselves can be things of beauty, charm, and connection.

monica mcfawn is an affiliate professor at Grand Valley State University and holds an MFA in poetry from Western Michigan University.

The Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction

faulty predictions Stories by Karin Lin-Greenberg Winner of the Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction

Funny yet empathetic stories about fractured bonds and the struggle to connect

In Karin Lin-Greenberg’s Faulty Predictions, young characters try to find their way in the world and older characters confront regrets.

In “Editorial Decisions,” members of the editorial board of a high school literary magazine are witnesses to an unspeakable act of violence. Two grandmothers, both immigrants from China, argue over the value of their treasures at a filming of Antiques Roadshow in “Prized Possessions.” In “A Good Brother,” a

sister forces her brother to accompany her to the Running of the Brides at Filene’s Basement. A city bus driver adopts a pig that has been brought onto the bus by rowdy college students in “Designated Driver.”

The stories in Faulty Predictions take place in locales as diverse as small-town Ohio, the mountains of western North Carolina, and the plains of Kansas. Lin-Greenberg provides insight into the human condition over a varied

cross section of geography, age, and culture.

Although the characters are often faced with obstacles and challenges, the stories also capture moments of optimism and hope.

karin lin-greenberg’s fiction has appeared

in literary journals including the Antioch Review, Epoch, Kenyon Review Online, and North American Review. She lives and teaches creative writing in upstate New York.

Association of Writers and Writing Programs Award for Creative Nonfiction

study in perfect Sarah Gorham Winner of the AWP Award for Creative Nonfiction Selected by Bernard Cooper

Writings that probe the human capacity to imagine perfection and to cope with imperfection “Study in Perfect is a book that wholeheartedly delves into ‘the many faceted idea of perfection.’ Drawing from the realms of science, philosophy, linguistics, social history, and personal reminiscence, the writer uses the abundance of knowledge and intuition at her disposal to define these facets. In doing so, she probes the human capacity to imagine perfection and to seek its illusive promise despite the odds against finding it. In many ways, this is a book about yearning and imperfection as much as it is about the ideals we strive for, and the author’s humanizing touch makes Study in Perfect not only informative but emotionally rewarding as well. It’s not often that I encounter a writer whose prose is this precise and lyrical and whose imaginative leaps are as articulate, unpredictable, and entertaining.”—Bernard Cooper, author of The Bill from My Father: A Memoir

Study in Perfect is an exploration of perfection. In “Moving Horizontal” a Victorian house loses its charm over time, especially when compared to a modernist contemporary filled with light. Family life is dense with pleasure, as in the perfect vacation described in “Marking Time in Door County,” and in “Neriage, or What Is the Secret of a Long Marriage,” where an ancient Japanese ceramic technique has much in common with shaping a close relationship. There is such a thing as a perfect cup of tea, depending on who is preparing and drinking it (“Perfect Tea”). And schmaltzy show tunes flowing from

a black-lacquered piano in a Chinese restaurant can be genuinely moving (“Sentimental à la Carte”).

Naturally, Gorham must embrace imperfection. The poisonous mushrooms in “Darling Amanita” lead to a consideration of our darker impulses, like obsessive love, even murder. And there is pain: “The Shape of Fear” relates the story of a child stricken with a deadly staph infection, as it considers the function and form of fear. And alcoholism, the family disease no one wants to talk about, is poised against The Cat in the Hat, a story everyone has read and enjoyed.

Study in Perfect winds its way around and through the many permutations of this most hermetic and exalted concept and proceeds with the full consciousness that perfection’s exact definition is subjective, reliant on who is speaking, and easily unmoored by time, geography, and the vagaries of taste.

the small heart of things Being at Home in a Beckoning World Julian Hoffman Winner of the AWP Award for Creative Nonfiction Selected by Terry Tempest Williams

A lyrical and wide-ranging meditation on the nature of place and home “A sharply observed . . . collection of essays on the interrelationships of man and nature, of soul and place . . . A deeply felt book that will lead readers to other books that inspired it.”—Kirkus Reviews “The message of finding wonder in our surroundings, as familiar as it may seem, is fresh here. The prose soothes. The pages absorb you. Hoffman’s world is endlessly instructive and inclusive.”—The Rumpus “Hoffman’s tranquility is not a passive retreat from our tumultuously loud, permanently distracted era; his project is to exert a compassionate mindfulness in the face of apathy—apathy toward the environment, or toward overlooked or forgotten populations.”—Iowa Review

In The Small Heart of Things, Julian Hoffman intimately examines the myriad ways in which connections to the natural world can be deepened through an equality of perception, whether it’s a caterpillar carrying its house of leaves, transhumant shepherds ranging high mountain pastures, a quail taking cover on an empty steppe, or a Turkmen family emigrating from Afghanistan to Istanbul.

Guided by Rainer Maria Rilke’s belief that “everything beckons us to perceive it,” Hoffman explores the area around the Prespa Lakes, shared by Greece, Albania, and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. From

there he travels widely, believing that through awareness, curiosity, and openness we have the potential to forge abiding relationships with a range of places.

The Small Heart of Things is a book about looking and listening. It incorporates travel and natural history writing, interweaving human stories with those of wild creatures as Hoffman illuminates how, when we accord places our close and patient attention, these many connections can teach us to be at home in the world.

julian hoffman was born in England and grew up in Canada. In 2000, he and his wife, Julia, moved to the Prespa Lakes in northern Greece, where after some years as market gardeners, they now monitor birds in sensitive upland areas where wind farms have been built or proposed. His essay “Faith in a Forgotten Place,” which is taken from the manuscript of The Small Heart of Things, won the 2011 Terrain.org Nonfiction Prize. Other writing has recently appeared in Kyoto Journal, Southern Humanities Review, EarthLines, Flyway, Cold Mountain Review, Three Coyotes, and Redwood Coast Review.

Philip Garrison Winner of the AWP Award for Creative Nonfiction Selected by Robert Atwan

Will Baker Winner of the AWP Award for Creative Nonfiction Selected by Annie Dillard

Journeys across landscapes and borders— material and ethereal

Looking back on the American West as a place and a state of mind

“These often profound essays . . . transform a physical landscape into a mindscape of odd discoveries, haunting juxtapositions, and shifting perceptual boundaries. . . . Garrison is in perfect control of his medium.”—Publishers Weekly

“Extraordinarily splendid writing. . . . Mountain Blood captures the independent spirit and sensibility of the American West.”

—Harper’s

“At its best, as it is here, [the essay] is a kind of ruminative thinking on the page or writing as the reader watches, something akin to Georges Simenon’s feat of writing a novel in a Paris bookstore window.”—Chicago Tribune

Set primarily in Mexico and the American Northwest, yet equally at home with Achilleus on the Trojan plains or with Walt Whitman in his New Jersey home, these fifteen essays pass back and forth across international boundaries as easily as they cross the more fluid lines separating past and present. Part biography, part history, Augury is also something of a writer’s journal, a guide to Garrison’s imaginative journeys.

philip garrison’s books include Waiting for the Earth to Turn Over: Identity and the Late Twentieth-Century American West, The Permit That Never Expires: Migrant Tales from the Ozark Hills and the Mexican Highlands, and Because I Don’t Have Wings: Stories of Mexican Immigrant Life. A professor of English emeritus at Central Washington University, Garrison currently directs the APOYO food and clothing bank, which he founded in 1995, with several members of the Mexicano community. september 5.5 x 8.5 | 176 pp. paper, $18.95t | 978-0-8203-4747-9 ebook available

“Strong prose writing in the tradition of A River Runs Through It—writing which does not strain to be literary, but which instead evokes a vivid world of people and events.”—Annie Dillard

The recollections and yarns, historical meditations and reportage brought together in Mountain Blood display a sensibility formed by the harsh, outlandishly beautiful terrain of the American West.

Will Baker’s tales range from Nebraska to Peru and tell of a boy’s first trout, a bar brawl over a woman, and the vise-like grip of gold over all of the Americas. They spring from an imagination shaped by wild, circuitous mealtime stories of prospectors and from the bitter history of a place where suburban ranch houses dot the vast sweep of land once hunted by the Lakotah.

a sense of regard Essays on Poetry and Race Edited by Laura McCullough

Searing, evocative reflections on how literature addresses a perennially vexed issue “Race is an old topic in poetry, but it still urges for in-depth exploration of visible or invisible labels of politics and racialization in America. This book, which gathers a collection of essays from poets and critics of different races, presents multiangle views about race and its relationship with poetry; the combined perspectives in A Sense of Regard has the potential to make a more significant contribution to the topic of poetry and race than any single author could accomplish.”—Jianqing Zheng, editor of The Other World of Richard Wright: Perspectives on His Haiku “An important book. I am hard pressed to think of many anthologies that take on a cultural scope this wide and varied. Such a book needs to exist in the world, especially since our literary landscape largely lacks this kind of critical engagement with poetry, specifically written by poets rather than ‘traditional scholars.’”

—Matthew Shenoda, author of Tahrir Suite A Sense of Regard, says Laura McCullough, “is an effort to collect the voices of living poets and scholars in thoughtful and considered exfoliation of the current confluence of poetry and race, the difficulties, the nuances, the unexamined, the feared, the questions, and the quarrels across aesthetic camps and biases.”

The contributors discuss issues as various as their own diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds. Their essays, which range in style from the personal and lyrical to the critical, are organized into four broad groupings: Americanism, the experience of unsilencing and crossing borders, interrogating whiteness, and language itself. To read them is to listen in as the contributors speak what they know, discover what they do not, and in the process often find something new in themselves and their topic. As a reader you are invited, says

McCullough, “to be moved from one sense of regard to another: to be provoked and to linger in that state. . . . To query, quarrel, and consider.”

A Sense of Regard grew out of a recent gathering of the Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP), where a poet’s comments on the work of another sparked impassioned and contentious conversations in person, in print, and online. Though race is often thought of as an age-old topic in poetry, McCullough saw clearly that there is still much to discuss, study, and tease apart. Moving the conversation beyond the specificity of those initial AWP encounters, with their mostly black/white focus on race, these essays provide a context and a safe starting place for some urgently needed discussions we too rarely have.

laura mccullough is an associate professor

of English at Brookdale Community College.

Her essays, criticism, poems, creative nonfiction, and short fiction have appeared in a wide range of literary magazines and journals, and her books include the poetry collections Rigger Death & Hoist Another, Panic, Speech Acts, and What Men Want.

The National Poetry Series

what ridiculous things we could ask of each other Poems by Jeffrey Schultz Winner of the National Poetry Series Award Selected by Kevin Young

Poems exploring the consequences of our choices, possibilities of change, and how we come to regret things we could avoid “Jeffrey Schultz’s stunning debut collection is filled with danger, omen, and fire—as appropriate to a book with an ode ‘To the Unexploded H-Bomb Lost in Tidal Mud off the Coast of Savannah, Georgia.’ The poems include ‘J.,’ a character who carves a path between John Berryman’s Huffy Henry and Ernesto Trejo’s E.—a soul set loose, unmoored even, who says ‘The World’s Not as It Should Be’ but also revels in modern life and its detritus, whether that’s ‘the soul as rooms for rent,’ the last pay phone, or ‘your blog.’ Schultz’s brilliant poetic debut embraces the world while lamenting it, singing of not just What Ridiculous Things We Could Ask of Each Other but answering in form and music, a haunting hymn in the round.”

—Kevin Young, author of Book of Hours

The poems in What Ridiculous Things We Could Ask of Each Other comb through the rubble of everyday life in search of the shards of beauty and hope that might still be found there. At the same time, these poems struggle to conceive of the beautiful and the hopeful in some way that can escape the purely naive. They confront loss and wrong, but because “Elegy / is stupid, if you can avoid it,” they seek, so much as is possible, not to offer

consolation in exchange for what ought not to have happened in the first place. If making the world right with itself would be simultaneously the simplest and the most difficult thing, these poems try to imagine the moment right before that change would become possible and try to imagine the questions we’d be confronted with then, in hope of opening the possibility of imagining the answers.

The Cave Canem Poetry Prize

zero to three Poems by F. Douglas Brown Winner of the Cave Canem Poetry Prize Selected by Tracy K. Smith

Poems on the early life and development of a child, and how parents themselves are altered throughout these stages “These poems lead us from the birth cry in a hospital delivery room, to dusk and revelry in Spain, to modern-day Florida and history-laden Mississippi where Trayvon Martin and Emmett Till were slain. Even when Brown sets out a poem to grieve loss, his lines move with a buoyant, marrow-deep music, percussive and rich. They move like ‘a train, bound to a destination’ and they arrive with ‘the crackle lightning makes when it hits.’”—Tracy K. Smith, author of Life on Mars and winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry

What started out as a way to address dealing with parenting and, in particular, fatherhood, became a series of poems focused on familial roles and situations that are difficult to articulate, even among family members. The poems in Zero to Three mark both the change in the child and in the father, who is also a son himself. The term “zero to three” derives from the developmental period that many clinicians and pediatricians believe is the most fundamental phase for children whose

delicate brains are undergoing drastic and formative change. Research also shows that parents undergo formative change alongside their children during this period from conception to toddler age.

These poems do not intend to offer a definitive stance on parenting or fatherhood but, rather, to capture an emotional gestational period that extends beyond the womb and exceeds beyond the grave. They celebrate pop culture and family, as well as lament the

anguish and frustration of a parent losing his temper or a parent losing a parent. Ultimately, these poems attempt to sing and dance in the fact that parenting is a wonderful mystery to witness and experience.

courthouses of georgia Association County Commissioners of Georgia Photographs by Greg Newington Text by George Justice Foreword by Ross King Introduction by Larry Walker

A visually stunning and fact-filled tribute to Georgia’s “temples of justice” “The courthouse is where couples are married and where divorces are granted. It’s where bought land is registered and where lawsuits over ‘family inherited land’ are settled. It’s where one gets a gun permit and it’s where murder trials are held. When there is a birth, a record is made, and when there is a death someone registers that also, often in the same office. The courthouse is where one pays taxes and where one might be ordered to pay other debts to society. . . . This is what this book is all about. It’s for us to look, see, and remember: memories good and bad, history laudable and shameful.”

—from the introduction by Larry Walker

The courthouses of Georgia’s 159 counties hold the keys to the history of individual families and entire communities alike. From their primary role as the temples of justice for our court system to their better-known function as the official repository of public records for significant life events, these buildings anchor many of Georgia’s town squares.

In Courthouses of Georgia, internationally recognized photographer Greg Newington captures the prominence and character of these great structures. His images pay tribute to the community’s investment in preserving historic courthouses for future generations and celebrate new facilities designed to accommodate expanded county programs and services, keeping pace with the state’s tremendous growth.

Courthouses of Georgia commemorates the centennial anniversary of Association County Commissioners of Georgia (ACCG), Georgia’s county government association. In his

jekyll island’s early years From Prehistory through Reconstruction June Hall McCash

Discover the rich and surprising past of a popular destination on the Georgia coast “McCash’s talents as a historian and writer shine. . . . McCash’s work is an invigorating narrative, impressive in both scope and detail. It is an admirable prequel to her earlier studies of Jekyll Island and more than satisfies the need for a scholarly examination of the island’s early years.”

—Georgia Historical Quarterly “McCash exceeds all expectations with her remarkable sense and feel for the history of Jekyll Island. . . . An unusually fine study of Jekyll’s early history.”

—Buddy Sullivan, author of Georgia: A State History

From the foremost authority on the famed Georgia barrier island, here is the first indepth look at Jekyll Island’s early history.

Much of what defines our view of the place dates from the Jekyll Island Club era. Founded in 1886, the Club was the private resort of America’s moneyed elite, including Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, and Pulitzers. In this book, which ranges from pre-Columbian times through the Civil War and its aftermath, June Hall McCash shows how the environment, human conflict, and a desire for refuge shaped the island long before the Club’s founding.

Jekyll’s earliest identifiable inhabitants were the Timucua, a flourishing group of Native Americans who became extinct within two hundred years after their first contact with Europeans. Caught up in the New World contests among France, Spain, and England, the island eventually became part of a thriving English colony. In subsequent stories of Jekyll and its residents, the drama of our nation plays out in microcosm. The American Revolution, the War of 1812, the plantation era, and the Civil War brought change to the island, as did hurricanes and cotton farming.

Personality conflicts and unsanctioned love affairs also had an impact, and McCash’s narrative is filled with the names of Jekyll’s powerful and often colorful families.

june hall mccash is a professor emerita at Middle Tennessee State University and the author of The Jekyll Island Cottage Colony and coauthor of The Jekyll Island Club (both Georgia). She was named a Georgia Author of the Year in 2011 and 2013.

early art of the southeastern indians Feathered Serpents and Winged Beings Susan C. Power

An astounding display of art from long-lost worlds “An extraordinary assemblage of objects . . . Early Art of the Southeastern Indians is a visual journey through time that demonstrates the exemplary abilities of master artists and craftsmen. Their remarkable achievements delight the senses and give us a brief glimpse into their symbolic world.”—American Archaeology “Power has written an excellent account of Southeastern Indian history and art history within a tightly constructed compendium of important primary and secondary sources. . . . An erudite addition to the scholarship on Southeastern Indian art that students, scholars, and the general public will find of much value.”

—North Carolina Historical Review “A wonderfully illustrated and engaging synthesis of prehistoric southeastern Indian art that will satisfy both professional and lay readers.”—Alabama Review

Early Art of the Southeastern Indians is a visual journey through time, highlighting some of the most skillfully created art in native North America. The remarkable objects described and pictured here, many in full color, reveal the hands of master artists who developed lapidary and weaving traditions, established centers for production of shell and copper objects, and created the first ceramics in North America.

Presenting artifacts originating in the Archaic through the Mississippian periods—

from thousands of years ago through A.D. 1600—Susan C. Power introduces us to an extraordinary assortment of ceremonial and functional objects, including pipes, vessels, figurines, and much more. Drawn from every corner of the Southeast—from Louisiana to the Ohio River valley, from Florida to Oklahoma—the pieces chronicle the emergence of new media and the mastery of new techniques as they offer clues to their creators’ widening awareness of their physical and spiritual worlds.

Southern Women: Their Lives and Times

texas women Their Histories, Their Lives Edited by Elizabeth Hayes Turner, Stephanie Cole, and Rebecca Sharpless

Life-and-times histories of women from Texas

Texas Women: Their Histories, Their Lives engages current scholarship on women in Texas, the South, and the United States. It provides insights into Texas’s singular geographic position, bordering on the West and sharing a unique history with Mexico, while analyzing the ways in which Texas stories mirror a larger American narrative. The biographies and essays illustrate an uncommon diversity among Texas women, reflecting experiences ranging from those of dispossessed enslaved women to wealthy patrons of the arts. That history also captures the ways in which women’s lives reflect both personal autonomy and opportunities to engage in the public sphere. From the

vast spaces of northern New Spain and the rural counties of antebellum Texas to the growing urban centers in the post–Civil War era, women balanced traditional gender and racial prescriptions with reform activism, educational enterprise, and economic development.

Contributors to Texas Women address major questions in women’s history, demonstrating how national and regional themes in the scholarship on women are answered or reconceived in Texas. Texas women negotiated significant boundaries raised by gender, race, and class.

The writers address the fluid nature of the border with Mexico, the growing importance of federal policies, and the eventual reforms

engendered by the civil rights movement.

From Apaches to astronauts, from pioneers to professionals, from rodeo riders to entrepreneurs, and from Civil War survivors to civil rights activists, Texas Women is an important contribution to Texas history, women’s history, and the history of the nation.

Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation

the empires’ edge Militarization, Resistance, and Transcending Hegemony in the Pacific Sasha Davis

Social movements confronting military power in the Asia-Pacific region

In the past decade the Asia-Pacific region has become a focus of international politics and military strategies. Due to China’s rising economic and military strength, North Korea’s nuclear tests and missile launches, tense international disputes over small island groups in the seas around Asia, and the United States pivoting a majority of its military forces to the region, the islands of the western Pacific have increasingly become the center of global attention. While the Pacific is a current hotbed of geopolitical rivalry and intense militarization, the region is also something else: a homeland to the hundreds of millions of people that inhabit it.

Based on a decade of research in the region, The Empires’ Edge examines the tremendous damage the militarization of the Pacific has wrought on its people and environments.

Furthermore, Davis details how contemporary social movements in this region are affecting global geopolitics by challenging the military use of Pacific islands and by developing a demilitarized view of security based on affinity, mutual aid, and international solidarity.

Through an examination of “sacrificed” islands from across the region—including Bikini Atoll, Okinawa, Hawai‘i, and Guam—The Empires’ Edge makes the case that the great political contest of the twenty-first century is

not about which country gets hegemony in a global system but rather about the choice between perpetuating a system of international relations based on domination or pursuing a more egalitarian and cooperative future.

Studies in Security and International Affairs

state behavior and the nuclear nonproliferation regime

Published with the generous support of the Figure Foundation

Edited by Jeffrey R. Fields

What explains countries’ variable support for global nonproliferation efforts?

This is the first book-length study of why states sometimes ignore, oppose, or undermine elements of the nuclear nonproliferation regime— even as they formally support it. Anchored by the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, the nuclear nonproliferation regime is the constellation of agreements, initiatives, and norms that work in concert to regulate nuclear material and technology. The essays gathered here show that attitudes on nonproliferation depend on a “complex, contingent decision calculus,” as states continually gauge how their actions within the regime will affect trade, regional standing, and other interests vital to any nation.

The first four essays take theoretical approaches to such topics as a framework for understanding challenges to collective action; clandestine proliferation under the Bush and

Obama administrations and its impact on regime legitimacy; threat construction as a lens through which to view resistance to nonproliferation measures; and the debate over the relationship between nuclear disarmament and nonproliferation. Essays comprising the second part of the book use regional and state-specific case studies to look at how U.S. security guarantees affect the willingness of states to support the regime; question the perceived spoiler role of a “vocal minority” within the Non-Aligned Movement; challenge notions that Russia is using the regime to build a coalition hostile to the United States; contrast nonproliferation strategies among Latin American countries; and explain the lag in adoption of an Additional Protocol by some Middle East and North African countries.

Getting countries to cooperate on nonproliferation efforts is an ongoing challenge. These essays show that success must be measured not only by how many states join the effort but also by how they participate once they join.

Studies in the Legal History of the South

tyrannicide Forging an American Law of Slavery in Revolutionary South Carolina and Massachusetts Emily Blanck

How a nearly forgotten dispute over fugitive slaves once threatened the fragile unity of a young nation

Tyrannicide uses a captivating narrative to unpack the experiences of slavery and slave law in South Carolina and Massachusetts during the Revolutionary Era. In 1779, during the midst of the American Revolution, thirtyfour South Carolina slaves escaped aboard a British privateer and survived several naval battles until the Massachusetts brig Tyrannicide led them to Massachusetts. Over the next four years, the slaves became the center of a legal dispute between the two states. The case affected slave law and highlighted the

profound differences between how the “terrible institution” was practiced in the North and the South, in ways that would foreground issues eventually leading to the Civil War. Emily Blanck uses the Tyrannicide affair and the slaves involved as a lens through which to view contrasting slaveholding cultures and ideas of African American democracy. Blanck’s examination of the debate analyzes crucial questions: How could the colonies unify when they viewed one of America’s foundational institutions in funda-

mentally different ways? How would fugitive slaves be handled legally and ethically? Blanck shows how the legal and political battles that resulted from the affair reveal much about revolutionary ideals and states’ rights at a time when notions of the New Republic—and philosophies about the unity of American states—were being created.

elbert parr tuttle Chief Jurist of the Civil Rights Revolution Anne Emanuel

The previously untold life story of a remarkable civil rights champion “In her thorough and engaging biography of Tuttle, Georgia State University law professor Anne Emanuel has documented Tuttle’s extraordinary life. For those interested in America’s racial history and transformation, this book is a must—a tour de force, covering not just Tuttle but the often violent times he lived in.”—Nina Totenberg, NPR.org “I have read the biography of Judge Tuttle, written by one of his former law clerks . . . and I commend it to everybody in the room to learn about what kind of a judge Elbert Tuttle was. He was really a surprisingly fine judge.”—Justice John Paul Stevens “Anne Emanuel’s important new book, Elbert Parr Tuttle, reminds us that some legal conflicts are destined to come down to a judge and an angry mob.”—The Atlantic

Born in California and raised in Hawaii, Elbert Parr Tuttle (1897–1996) led the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit—the federal court with jurisdiction over most of the Deep South—through the most tumultuous years of the civil rights movement. When Tuttle assumed the mantle of chief judge in 1960, six years had passed since Brown v. Board

of Education had been decided, but little had changed for black southerners. In landmark cases Tuttle’s determination to render justice and his swift, decisive rulings neutralized the delaying tactics of diehard segregationists—from voter registrars and school board members to governors and judges, including at times his own colleagues on the federal bench.

anne emanuel is professor of law emerita at Georgia State University. She clerked for Judge Tuttle during his tenure on the Fifth Circuit, practiced in a private law firm, and clerked for Chief Justice Harold Hill of the Georgia Supreme Court.

Race in the Atlantic World, 1700–1900 Published in cooperation with the Library Company of Philadelphia’s Program in African American History

enterprising women Gender, Race, and Power in the Revolutionary Atlantic Kit Candlin and Cassandra Pybus

Recovered histories of entrepreneurial women of color from the colonial Caribbean “Enterprising Women is not only a good and illuminating read but a potentially pathbreaking book. Candlin and Pybus have produced a book that charts new territory in the study of free women of color in the South Caribbean.”

—Sylvia R. Frey, author of The British Soldier in America: A Social History of Military Life in the Revolutionary Period “In contrast to masculine-centered histories of the Southern Caribbean, Enterprising Women is a hard-hitting study of an intrepid group of free women of color. The authors turn upside down the familiar trope of free women of color as often marginalized figures, and their heroic tracking of the descendants of the free women of color over several generations opens up the Atlantic history of race from several distinct and important perspectives. This is a challenging but deeply ramifying work.”—Richard S. Newman, author of The Transformation of American Abolitionism: Fighting Slavery in the Early Republic

In the Caribbean colony of Grenada in 1797, Dorothy Thomas signed the manumission documents for her elderly slave Betty. Thomas owned dozens of slaves and was well on her way to amassing the fortune that would make her the richest black resident in the nearby colony of Demerara. What made the transaction notable was that Betty was Dorothy Thomas’s mother and that fifteen years earlier Dorothy had purchased her own freedom and that of her children. Although she was just one remove from bondage, Dorothy Thomas managed to become so rich and powerful that she was known as the Queen of Demerara.

Dorothy Thomas’s story is but one of the remarkable acounts of pluck and courage recovered in Enterprising Women. As the microbiographies in this book reveal, free women of color in Britain’s Caribbean colonies were not merely the dependent concubines of the white male elite, as is commonly assumed.

In the capricious world of the slave colonies during the age of revolutions, some of them were able to rise to dizzying heights of success. These highly entrepreneurial women exercised remarkable mobility and developed extensive commercial and kinship connections in the metropolitan heart of empire while raising well-educated children who were able to penetrate deep into British life.

revolutionizing expectations Women’s Organizations, Feminism, and American Politics, 1965–1980 Melissa Estes Blair

Exploring feminist activism at the local level during a critical period of social transformation

In the 1970s the women’s movement created tremendous changes in the lives of women throughout the United States. Millions of women participated in a movement that fundamentally altered the country’s ideas about how women could and should contribute to American society. Revolutionizing Expectations tells the story of some of those women, many of whom took part in the movement in unexpected ways. By looking at feminist activism in Durham, Denver, and Indianapolis, Melissa Estes Blair uncovers not only the work

of local chapters but also the feminist activism of Leagues of Women Voters and of women’s religious groups in those pivotal cities.

Through her exploration of how women’s organizations that were not explicitly feminist became channels for feminism, Blair expands our understanding of who feminists were and what feminist action looked like during the high tide of the women’s movement. Revolutionizing Expectations looks beyond feminism’s intellectual leaders and uncovers a multifaceted women’s movement of white, African

American, and Hispanic women from a range of political backgrounds and ages who worked together to bring about tremendous changes in their own lives and the lives of generations of women who followed them.

reconstructing democracy Grassroots Black Politics in the Deep South after the Civil War Justin Behrend

How politically engaged freedpeople shaped a new system of governance in the South

Former slaves, with no prior experience in electoral politics and with few economic resources or little significant social standing, created a sweeping political movement that transformed the South after the Civil War. Within a few short years after emancipation, not only were black men voting but they had elected thousands of ex-slaves to political offices. Historians have long noted the role of African American slaves in the fight for their emancipation and their many efforts to secure their freedom and citizenship, yet they have given surprisingly little attention to the

system of governance that freedpeople helped to fashion. Justin Behrend argues that freedpeople created a new democracy in the Reconstruction era, replacing the oligarchic rule of slaveholders and Confederates with a grassroots democracy.

Reconstructing Democracy tells this story through the experiences of ordinary people who lived in the Natchez District, a region of the Deep South where black political mobilization was very successful. Behrend shows how freedpeople set up a political system rooted in egalitarian values wherein local

communities rather than powerful individuals held power and ordinary people exercised unprecedented influence in governance. In so doing, he invites us to reconsider not only our understanding of Reconstruction but also the nature and origins of democracy more broadly.

• Winner of the Malcolm Bell Jr. and Muriel Barrow Bell Award, Georgia Historical Society • Winner of the Excellence Using the Holdings of an Archives Award, Georgia Historical Records Advisory Board Why do we preserve certain landscapes while developing others without restraint? Drew A. Swanson’s in-depth look at Wormsloe plantation, located on the salt marshes outside of Savannah, Georgia, explores that question while revealing the broad historical forces that have shaped the lowcountry South. Wormsloe remained in the hands of one family from 1736 through the 1970s, when much of it was ceded to the state for the creation of a historic site.

Like many lowcountry places, Wormsloe is inextricably tied to regional, national, and global environments and is the product of transatlantic exchanges.

Swanson argues that while visitors to Wormsloe value what they perceive to be an “authentic,” undisturbed place, this landscape is actually the product of aggressive management over generations. He also finds that Wormsloe is an ideal place to get at hidden stories, such as African American environmental and agricultural knowledge, conceptions of health and disease, the relationship between manual labor and views of nature, and the ties between historic preservation and natural resource conservation. Remaking Wormsloe Plantation connects this distinct Georgia place to the broader world, adding

depth and nuance to the understanding of our own conceptions of nature and history.

George H. Shriver Lecture Series in Religion in American History

urban origins of american judaism Deborah Dash Moore

On the urban experience of America’s Jews “This fascinating study of urbanism and American Judaism offers an insightful portrait of the ways that the rhythms of city life shaped the religious practices of American Jews. Examining synagogues, city streets, and photographs, Deborah Dash Moore has changed our understanding of the evolution of American Judaism.

Moore demonstrates brilliantly that the distinct features of American Judaism must be interpreted through the lens of urban experience.”—Beth S. Wenger, author of History Lessons: The Creation of American Jewish Heritage

The urban origins of American Judaism began with daily experiences of Jews, their responses to opportunities for social and physical mobility as well as constraints of discrimination and prejudice. Deborah Dash Moore explores Jewish participation in American cities and considers the implications of urban living for American Jews across three centuries.

Looking at synagogues, streets, and snapshots, she contends that key features of American Judaism can be understood as an imaginative product grounded in urban potentials.

Jews signaled their collective urban presence through synagogue construction, which represented Judaism on the civic

stage. Synagogues housed Judaism in action, its rituals, liturgies, and community, while simultaneously demonstrating how Jews Judaized other aspects of their collective life, including study, education, recreation, sociability, and politics. Synagogues expressed aesthetic aspirations and translated Jewish spiritual desires into brick and mortar. Their changing architecture reflects shifting values among American Jews.

Concentrations of Jews in cities also allowed for development of public religious practices that ranged from weekly shopping for the Sabbath to exuberant dancing in the streets with Torah scrolls on the holiday of

Simhat Torah. Jewish engagement with city streets also reflected Jewish responses to Catholic religious practices that temporarily transformed streets into sacred spaces. This activity amplified an urban Jewish presence and provided vital contexts for synagogue life, as seen in the captivating photographs Moore analyzes.

deborah dash moore is the Frederick G. L. Huetwell Professor of History and director of the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan.

womanpower unlimited and the black freedom struggle in mississippi

Politics and Culture in the Twentieth-Century South

Tiyi M. Morris

A vital contribution to the often-overlooked history of women as agents of change in the civil rights movement “It is one thing to say that black women were important to the civil rights movement but, in Womanpower Unlimited and the Black Freedom Struggle in Mississippi, Tiyi M. Morris expands our understanding of black women’s activism by showing it was much more than just voter registration and direct action campaigns. Black women’s activism encompassed the international peace movement, quality of life issues for poor blacks, equality of educational opportunities, work with children, feeding the hungry, and so much more, and it moved well outside the borders of the state of Mississippi, touching the lives of thousands of people in the few short years it was in existence.”

—Robert Luckett, Director, Margaret Walker Center, Jackson State University “Tiyi Morris brings black women’s activism into full view, adding great insight and depth to our understanding of local movement history and the contributions of African American women to it.”—Vicki L. Crawford, Director, Morehouse College Martin Luther King Jr. Collection In Womanpower Unlimited and the Black Freedom Struggle in Mississippi, Tiyi M. Morris provides the first comprehensive examination of the Jackson, Mississippi– based women’s organization Womanpower Unlimited. Founded in 1961 by Clarie Collins Harvey, the organization was created initially to provide aid to the Freedom Riders who were unjustly arrested and then tortured in Mississippi jails. Womanpower Unlimited expanded its activism to include programs such as voter registration drives, youth education, and participation in Women Strike for Peace. Womanpower Unlimited proved to be not only a significant organization with regard to civil rights activism in Mississippi but also

a spearhead movement for revitalizing black women’s social and political activism in the state.

Womanpower Unlimited elucidates the role that the group played in sustaining the civil rights movement in Mississippi. Consistent with the recent scholarship that emphasizes the necessity of a bottom-up analysis for attaining a more comprehensive narrative of the civil rights movement, this work broadens our understanding of movement history in general by examining the roles of “local people” as well as the leadership women provided. Additionally, it contributes to a better understanding of how the movement developed in Mississippi by examining some of the lesser-

known women upon whom activists, both inside and outside of the state, relied. Black women, and Womanpower specifically, were central to movement successes in Mississippi; and Womanpower’s humanist agenda resulted in its having the most diverse agenda of a Mississippi-based civil rights organization.

Politics and Culture in the Twentieth-Century South

faith in bikinis Politics and Leisure in the Coastal South since the Civil War Anthony J. Stanonis

How the prospects for tourism dollars complicated racial and regional divisions in the coastal South “In Faith in Bikinis, Anthony Stanonis argues for a more nuanced understanding of the New South through the lens of coastal tourism. This book will broaden significantly our understanding of topics often ignored in studies of the region, particularly in southern coastal communities where Jim Crow functioned much differently and where an industry like moonshining was just as robust as the one to be found in southern Appalachia.”—Karen L. Cox, author of Dreaming in Dixie: How the South Was Created in American Popular Culture “Faith in Bikinis is a fascinating—and untold—history that has been carefully and eloquently told by an accomplished scholar.”—Andrew W. Kahrl, author of The Land Was Ours: African American Beaches from Jim Crow to the Sunbelt South

While traditional industries like textile or lumber mills have received a majority of the scholarly attention devoted to southern economic development, Faith in Bikinis presents an untold story of the New South, one that explores how tourism played a central role in revitalizing the southern economy and transforming southern culture after the Civil War. Along the coast of the American South, a culture emerged that negotiated the more rigid religious, social, and racial practices of the inland cotton country and the more indulgent consumerism of vacationers, many from the North, who sought greater freedom to enjoy sex, gambling, alcohol, and other pleasures. On the shoreline, the Sunbelt South—the modern South—first emerged.

This book examines those tensions and how coastal southerners managed to placate both.

White supremacy was supported, but the resorts’ dependence on positive publicity gave African Americans leverage to pursue racial equality, including access to beaches often restored through the expenditure of federal tax dollars. Displays of women clad in scanty swimwear served to market resorts via pamphlets, newspaper promotions, and film. Yet such marketing of sexuality was couched in the form of carefully managed beauty contests and the language of Christian wholesomeness widely celebrated by resort boosters. Prohibition laws were openly flaunted in Galveston, Biloxi, Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, and elsewhere. Yet revenue from sales taxes made

states reluctant to rein in resort activities.

This revenue bridged the divide between the coastal resorts and agricultural interests, creating a space for the New South to come into being.

anthony j. stanonis is a lecturer in modern U.S. history at Queens University, Belfast.

He is the editor of Dixie Emporium: Tourism, Foodways, and Consumer Culture in the American South and author of Creating the Big Easy: New Orleans and the Emergence of Modern Tourism, 1918–1945 (both Georgia).

Love and Fear in U.S. Antebellum Literature Kevin Pelletier

A powerful new reading of the relationship between nineteenth-century sentimentality, religious discourse, and antislavery reform “Kevin Pelletier’s Apocalyptic Sentimentalism makes an important and original contribution to critical debates about the structure and logic of sympathy in the antebellum period. Through careful readings of abolitionist literature from David Walker through Maria Stewart, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and John Brown, he reveals just how significant the threat of apocalypse and its concomitant production of fear worked in concert with appeals to sympathy and, as Stowe put it, ‘feeling right.’”—Cindy Weinstein, author of Family, Kinship, and Sympathy in Nineteenth-Century American Literature “This book significantly redefines the U.S. sentimental tradition, unsettling conventional understandings of the relationship between sentimentality, religious discourse, and antislavery work. Pelletier’s new model of American literary history places the notion of apocalyptic fear at the heart of the antislavery movement. I am certain that no scholar will able to talk about sentimentality and abolition during the antebellum period without referencing Apocalyptic Sentimentalism.”—Arthur Riss, author of Race, Slavery, and Liberalism in Nineteenth-Century American Literature

In contrast to the prevailing scholarly consensus that understands sentimentality to be grounded on a logic of love and sympathy, Apocalyptic Sentimentalism demonstrates that in order for sentimentality to work as an antislavery engine, it needed to be linked to its seeming opposite—fear, especially the fear of God’s wrath. Most antislavery reformers recognized that calls for love and sympathy or the representation of suffering slaves would not lead an audience to “feel right” or to actively oppose slavery. The threat of God’s apocalyptic vengeance—and the terror that this threat inspired—functioned within the tradition of abolitionist sentimentality as a necessary goad for sympathy and love. Fear,

then, was at the center of nineteenth-century sentimental strategies for inciting antislavery reform, bolstering love when love faltered, and operating as a powerful mechanism for establishing interracial sympathy. Depictions of God’s apocalyptic vengeance constituted the most efficient strategy for antislavery writers to generate a sense of terror in their audience.

Focusing on a range of important antislavery figures, including David Walker, Nat Turner, Maria Stewart, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and John Brown, Apocalyptic Sentimentalism illustrates how antislavery discourse worked to redefine violence and vengeance as the ultimate expression (rather than denial) of love and sympathy. At the same

time, these warnings of apocalyptic retribution enabled antislavery writers to express, albeit indirectly, fantasies of brutal violence against slaveholders. What began as a sentimental strategy quickly became an incendiary gesture, with antislavery reformers envisioning the complete annihilation of slaveholders and defenders of slavery.

“i have been so many people” A Study of Lee Smith’s Fiction Tanya Long Bennett A comprehensive analysis of all of Lee Smith’s fiction up through her 2006 novel, On Agate Hill, including her short stories, this study argues that Smith’s fiction examines the psychological challenges of living in a society that is, on some level, “rootless.” Using post-structuralist theory and narratology, Bennett elucidates Smith’s unique narrative explorations of identity. She argues that Smith has made an important contribution to Southern literature, in her consistent focus on the Southerner’s post–Civil War self-conflict, and to contemporary literature in general.

tanya long bennett is a professor of English at the University of North Georgia, where she has taught for thirteen years. She earned her PhD in English at the University of Tennessee. Her research focuses on twentieth- and twenty-firstcentury fiction, as well as gender studies.

traveler’s rest and the tugaloo crossroads Robert Eldridge Bouwman On Georgia Highway 123, amid the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, stands Traveler’s Rest Historic Site. The house stands within two miles of the site of Old Tugaloo Town, an important Cherokee village. It is situated on a crossroads at the southern end of the Great Wagon Road, down which a wave of European-American migration poured to fill the land east of the Appalachians in the mid-eighteenth century. Its history encompasses the Cherokees, migration, frontier war, and gold rush; it includes the development of Traveler’s Rest as a stagecoach inn/tavern into its long years as a plantation center; through Civil War and Reconstruction, the gradual decline of land and family is taken to the present century, where Traveler’s Rest becomes the physical embodiment of history transfigured into legend. The history of Traveler’s Rest is the history of a people and a heritage, reflected in the structure that developed with the years.

robert eldridge bouwman was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in 1948. He attended Florida Presbyterian College and completed his graduate studies in history at Emory University, where he received his PhD in 1975. Bouwman worked as a freelance historian, during which time he researched and wrote Traveler’s Rest and the Tugaloo Crossroads. He has taught at Piedmont College, Gainesville State College, Kennesaw State University, and the University of North Georgia, where he teaches today.

The Cinema of Graham Greene, 4th Edition Quentin Falk Foreword by Neil Jordan Afterword by Joyce Stavick

Phuong’s Story Creina Mansfield Foreword by Joyce Stavick

Graham Greene is one of the twentieth century’s literary giants, and his work has been translated to the cinema more than almost any other major contemporary novelist. Author and film critic Quentin Falk examines all aspects of Greene’s involvement in the world of film, including his stint as a movie critic in the 1930s. Contrasts are made between the work that Greene himself adapted for the screen, such as The Third Man and Our Man in Havana, and the work that has been adapted by others, such as The Heart of the Matter and The Honorary Consul. This gorgeous new edition contains a new chapter that includes two of the newest Graham Greene movie adaptations: 2002’s The Quiet American and 2010’s Brighton Rock.

quentin falk is an author, critic, broadcaster,

and journalist. His first book, Travels in Greeneland: The Cinema of Graham Greene (1984), was shortlisted for the Mobil / British Film Institute Book of the Year Award. A former editor of the European trade paper Screen International and Academy, the British Academy of Film & Television Arts’ (BAFTA) magazine, he has also been a movie reviewer for the Daily Mail, Daily Telegraph, Sunday Mirror, and Catholic Herald.

Provoked by Graham Greene’s The Quiet American, this novel tells the story of Phuong, from her childhood in the Vietnamese district of Cu Chi to her return there as a guerrilla fighter. Phuong’s unmentioned past, subdued personality, and lack of political expression are the subjects of the novel, which begins during the Vietnam war. From the tunnels of Cu Chi, Phuong fights outside a village near her birthplace. There, she recalls her upbringing, her journey to Saigon, and the years she spent there as a spy for the Vietminh. Under orders from the communist committee, Phuong ensnared Thomas Fowler, a British journalist, because he was a rich source of information. Later, Phuong was ordered to become the mistress of Alden Pyle, a newly arrived American whom she realized was, like her, a covert operator.

creina mansfield was born in Bristol, England,

in December 1949. A teacher, she has degrees from Cambridge and Manchester Universities. She has published seven works of fiction for young people, some of which have been translated into French, German, Portuguese, Italian, and Danish.

Her special interests are the modern novel and the theory of narrative structure. She lives in Cheshire with her husband and their dogs and cats.
