And Their Children After Them: The Legacy of Let Us Now Praise Famous Men: James Agee, Walker Evans, and the Rise and Fall of Cotton in the South by Michael S. Williamson, Dale Maharidge

3.0

Depressing Southern poverty mid-century as cotton tenant farming ends. Landowners and tenants all trapped in debt and ill-education and changing technology elsewhere. Difficult background of selective observation, journalism, and exploitation of Alabama stereotypes.
