JOHN DAVID SMITH is Graduate Alumni Distinguished Professor of History at North Carolina State University.

THOMAS H. APPLETON, JR., serves as editor of publications for the Kentucky Historical Society. He is collaborating with Charles P. Roland on a biography of former Kentucky governor, U.S. Senator, and Commisioner of baseball Albert B. Happy Chandler.

Review:
"A Mythic Land Apart, stands as a worthy study in Southern political and cultural history. It covers a wide range of topics, presents them in a highly readable manner, and strengthens Roland's contention that the South should indeed be considered, as Allen Tate once wrote, "Uncle Sam's other province.""-Southern Historian

"The essays reflect the careful attention to craft that has highlighted the mentor's own scholarship."-The Journal of Southern History

"These well-crafted essays, reflect the teaching skills and extensive interests of "Charlie" Roland, who can take pride in having trained so many able students."-Register of the Kentucky Historical Society

?The essays reflect the careful attention to craft that has highlighted the mentor's own scholarship.?-The Journal of Southern History

?It is a worthwhile text to anyone that would like to see an unbiased overview of how the South evolved along with the rest of the country.?-???
