From the DJ: "In an age when all America seems to be traveling down the road to a bland uniformity of styles and commercialized, plastic sameness, there still remains one last group of true romantics anchored to their convictions, beliefs and folkways--the good old boys, the white Southerners with their mystique of fast cars, moonshine, country music, stock-car radcing and Southern machismo. In this marvelous and eloquent book, Paul Hemphill... celebrates the last of a dying breed--and his own childhood and upbringing." Shipping weight 2 lbs.. First Edition. . VG/VG. 21½ X 14½ cm.
