                        Millions of southerners left the South in the twentieth century in a mass migration that has, in many ways, rewoven the fabric of American society on cultural, political, and economic levels. Mary Weaks-Baxter analyses narratives by and about those who left the South and how those narratives have remade what it means to be southern.
