A great browser book

As a book of quotations, this is a great one. It covers all of the usual topics from the South. I would have given it 5 stars, but it lacked a table of contents and an index, which really comes in handy in a book with over 700 quotations.

Full of fun surpises

What a fun book, full of surprises. I have never seen a book of Southern quotes and, had I, I would have expected it to be full of hackneyed, predictible quotes about the traditional South. But this is all over the map, all in all a lot of fun
