The article presents information about the book "The Mind of the South," by W.J. Cash. Cash who is a native of South Carolina and long a citizen of, the most "progressive" of Southern states, North Carolina. It should not be forgotten, moreover, that Alabama is almost as different from South Carolina or Virginia. Cash shows, there is one South also in the sense that both the Old South and the New South are legends, springing from the same necessity, that of affirming the difference and, self sufficiency of the South, so that the paradox of believing at the same time that the South is entirely different from the rest of the country and yet just as up to date, progressive and gives very few Southerners pause.
