Description
About the Book
The first comprehensive account of U.S. involvement in the war against Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia), exploring how our relationship with Rhodesia helped define interracial dynamics in the United States, and vice versa.Book Synopsis
The mountaineer stereotype--violent people who preserve a traditional lifestyle and vote Republican--has been perpetuated through the years. McKinney found that the impact of the Civil War and the absence of blacks, rather than economic and geographical factors, were responsible for the persistence of Republican voting patterns. Also, mountain Republicanism was the conscious creation of politicians in a five-state region to shape their party to conform to local political conditions.Originally published 1978.
