John March Southerner is a novel written by George W. Cable. The book follows the story of John March, a young man from the South who is determined to make a name for himself in the world. March leaves his hometown and travels to New York City, where he becomes involved in the publishing industry. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including a wealthy publisher, a beautiful young woman, and a group of political activists. As March navigates his way through the complex world of publishing and politics, he must also confront his own beliefs about race and the South. Ultimately, John March Southerner is a story about one man's journey to find his place in the world and to reconcile his Southern heritage with the changing times.Oh, Mr. Ravenel; we can't. We just can't! It's the strangest thing in the world, sir! Nobody wants it but lumbermen, and to let them, faw a few cents an acre, sweep ove' it like worms ove' a cotton field--we just can't do it! Mr. Ravenel, what is the reason such a land as this can't be settled up? We'll sell it to any real settlehs! But, good Lawd! sir, where air they? Son an' me ain't got no money to impote 'em, sir. The darkies don't know anything but cotton fahmin'--they won't come. Let me tell you, sir, we've made the most flattering offers to capitalists to start this and that. But they all want to wait till we've got a good gov'ment. An' now, here we've got it--in Clearwateh, at least--an' you can see that these two men ain't satisfied!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
