The South in the Building of the Nation: Biography K to Z Volume 12 by Edited By Fleming, Walter Lynwood - 2002

Gretna, LA, U.S.A.: Pelican Publishing Company, Inc, 2002. The purpose of these two final volumes is to round out this historical account by focusing on the Southern men and women who have contributed in a marked degree to the life and development of the South and the nation. Written from a sympathetic point of view, volume XI and XII constitute a quick reference to these leaders. Limitations of space may have led to the omission of some figures that another collection might have included. No attempt at glorification is made, and accuracy of social and historical setting is a priority. Character, personality, and individuality have always been treasured in the South. Those qualities are celebrated here. Volume XII lists entries for individuals with last names starting with the letters from K to Z., including Robert E. Lee, Meriwether Lewis and Jeb Stuart.587pp. .PLEASE NOTE THIS BOOK NUMBER REFERS TO VOLUME 12,VOLUME 11,BIOGRAPHY A-J IS ALSO AVAILABLE SEE OUR LISTING BOOK NUMBER #006491.. Facsimile Reprint.
