"...the first book-length study of Southern Populism as a regional rather than a state-wide phenomenon and the first study to explain the complex connection between ideas and political behavior for this movement. Bruce Palmer focuses on what the Southern Populist rank-and-file thought and believed by employing an exhaustive analysis of all the extant written material they left -- speeches, editorials, letters to the editor, pamphlets, resolutions by county mass meetings, and correspondence in manuscript collections.
The Southern Populists, drawing on their heritage and the lessons they learned in the Farmers' Alliance cooperative movement of the late 1880's, elaborated an often sophisticated analysis and critique of industrial capitalism in this country and suggested political solutions to the poverty and exploitation it brought to rural and urban America."
