This fascinating book chronicles the history and achievements of the New York Southern Society, a prominent cultural and social organization founded by Southern expatriates living in New York City in the aftermath of the Civil War. With its focus on literature, music, and the arts, the society played a central role in fostering a sense of community among displaced Southerners, while at the same time contributing to the cultural life of New York City. The book is a valuable contribution to the study of the intersections of culture, politics, and regional identity in American history.
