Cash, W. J. The Mind of the South, Signed Stated First Edition

(New York: Borzoi Books for Alfred A. Knopf, 1941), octavo (9 in.), gray linen boards with original dust jacket, signed in ink on front free endpaper, "Cordially yours, W J Cash."

The Mind of the South was a ground-breaking work when published at the end of the Great Depression and the book is still relevant today. Cash, a talented North Carolina journalist, was able to discuss the region's past and present with an even balance of criticism and compassion.

Very light shelf wear with minor chipping to the jacket. A fine copy.
