Excerpt from Studies in the South and West: With Comments on Canada
My dear Mr. Alden, - It was at your suggestion that these Studies were undertaken; all of them passed under your eye, except "Society in the New South," which appeared in the New Princeton Review. The object was not to present a comprehensive account of the country South and West - which would have been impossible in the time and space given - but to note certain representative developments, tendencies, and dispositions, the communication of which would lead to a better understanding between different sections. The subjects chosen embrace by no means all that is important and interesting, but it is believed that they are fairly representative. The strongest impression produced upon the writer in making these Studies was that the prosperous life of the Union depends upon the life and dignity of the individual States.
