Critics Review
Our Country First, then Greenville is an important book because it helps answer the riddle of Southern Progressivism, which is: When was a Southern Progressive not progressive? The answer: Whenever the color line was at stake. This book is highly recommended for academic libraries and public libraries with South Carolina and Piedmont region history collections.
