The Economic South
Mitchell, Broadus | July 18, 1934 issue

This article critically appraises the book "Economic History of the South," by Emory Q. Hawk. Professor Hawk has read widely, condensed skilfully, and combined his materials ingeniously. He has shown a sense proportion, and his volume is chock lull of facts. His writing is clear and smooth, and does not neglect an occasional grateful pleasantry. Here is a picture of the economic South, in all its essentials, in all its stages. For all the fact of the existence of monographic material and statistics, Professor Hawk has had to do a deal, of spade work. This is partly responsible for the lack which the present reviewer discovers in the presentation.
