He notes that throughout their history southerners have encountered failure, poverty, guilt, defeat, and ridicule and that their experiences seem at odds with the notions of invincibility that have fueled the flames of American idealism. Yet McWilliams points out that southerners have joined with northerners in accepting the ideas of a mission to extend the American way of lifeInternationalistsSouthern StatesHistoryUnited StatesForeign relations1865-Southern StatesIntellectual life1865-Southern StatesRelationsForeign countriesInternationalistsHistory.327.73009/034McWilliams Tennant S.1943-1617179MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810084503321The new South faces the world4003534UNINA
