While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.”
—C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)
“It is said that some Western steamers can run on a heavy dew, whence we can imagine what a canoe may do.”
