Table of ContentsReviewsInsightful and accessible--Margaret M. Mulrooney Journal of Southern History "Insightful and accessible--Margaret M. Mulrooney ""Journal of Southern History""" Using Mississippi as his focal point, Michael J. Goleman provides a sagacious analysis of white southern nationalism's formation. Goleman's book is thoroughly researched, well-arranged, carefully written, and readable. Indeed, Goleman's work is an important contribution to many different fields of historical scholarship.--John Kyle Day, associate professor of history, University of Arkansas at Monticello, and author of The Southern Manifesto: Massive Resistance and the Fight to Preserve Segregation Insightful and accessible--Margaret M. Mulrooney ""Journal of Southern History"" Your Heritage Will Still Remain wisely puts the development of the Lost Cause in the context of antebellum politics, Confederate nationalism, the battles of Reconstruction and redemption, and most important, of persistent racial divisions. In the process, it offers a fascinating view of how, in the Lost Cause, Mississippi's white conservatives portrayed themselves in opposition to African Americans rather than northerners and thereby sustained their identity as both southerners and Americans--an important and often overlooked insight. In the process, Goleman argues, the Lost Cause created a white, conservative social identity that persists in Mississippi today. His book provides Mississippians and anyone interested in understanding southern identity much to think about.--Gaines Foster, LSU Foundation M. J. Foster Professor of History and author of Ghosts of the Confederacy: Defeat, the Lost Cause, and the Emergence of the New South, 1865-1913 Author InformationMichael J.
