Rating: 3 stars
Summary: From Lyrical to Libelous--Diverging Views of the South
Review: "My sister says Southerners are like other people, only more so."--Blanche McCrary Boyd

"Southerners speak music."--Mark Twain

"For all its size and wealth and all the 'progress' it babbles of, [the South] is almost as sterile, artistically, intellectually, culturally, as the Sahara Desert."--H.L. Mencken

Quotations by and about Southerners. Some are good, some bad, and some ugly. Some are even accurate. I wouldn't have bought this book myself, but having received it as a gift, I enjoyed it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Full of fun surpises
Review: What a fun book, full of surprises. I have never seen a book of Southern quotes and, had I, I would have expected it to be full of hackneyed, predictible quotes about the traditional South. But this is all over the map, all in all a lot of fun
