Sumario: | "Katharine and R.J. Reynolds reveals the broad economic, social, cultural, and political changes that were the backdrop to the Reynoldses' lives. Portraying a New South shaped by tensions between rural poverty and industrial transformation, white working-class inferiority and deeply entrenched racism, and the solidification of a one-party political system, [Michele] Gillespie offers a masterful life-and-times biography of these important North Carolinians."--Publisher's web site. |
