A Southern Odyssey by John Hope Franklin

There were thousands of southerners who travelled extensively in the North and who recorded their impressions in letters, articles for the local press, and books. In A Southern Odyssey, John Hope Franklin canvasses the entire field of southern travel and analyses the travellers and their accounts of what they saw in the North.
John Hope Franklin (1915--2009) was James B. Duke Professor of History Emeritus and professor of legal history at Duke University.
