Revolt of the Provinces

“A work of remarkable scope and depth of learning. [Dorman’s] principal contribution is wise imaginative and often revelatory readings of published texts.” — <i>Journal of Southern History</i><br/><br/>“[Dorman] skillfully recreates — and acutely analyzes — the fascinating story of one of American political and cultural history’s forgotten but most appealing alternatives.” — <i>Journal of American History</i><br/><br/>“Dorman has provided a useful and insightful synthesizing study of the major versions actors streams and manifestations of regionalism in the interwar period.” — <i>American Historical Review</i><br/><br/>“An innovative insightful and important study that should long serve as a beacon for others to follow.” — <i>Environmental History</i><br/><br/>“Regionalism surely stands among the most influential cultural movements in twentieth-century America yet to date it has received surprisingly little attention. With his extensive research thoughtful insights and artful prose Robert Dorman has provided us with a truly first-rate study that should represent the definitive word on American regionalism for years to come.” — Daniel J. Singal author of <i>The War Within: From Victorian to Modernist Thought in the South 1919–1945</i>
