Law and Society in the South
A History of North Carolina Court Cases
About the Author
Reviews
"Captivating. Historiographically, a fresh exploration of key topics in the legal history of North Carolina, the South, and the nation, and pedagogically, a master teacher collaborating with successive cohorts of undergraduate fellow researchers. General readers and academics alike will learn from and enjoy the deep research, astute observations, and the fine writing."—Peter Wallenstein, author of Cradle of America: Four Centuries of Virginia History
"Historian John W. Wertheimer highlights legal cases tried in North Carolina courts that haped the state and society."—Fayetteville Observer-Times
"This book will appeal to readers who are interested in a detailed explanation of specific cases in North Carolina's history. . . . It is well-written, interesting, and is sufficiently accessible to allow undergraduates to connect with the material."Law and Politics Book Review
"This book offers a plethora of interesting insights about the role and influence of North Carolina courts in responding to and furthering social change in various eras."—J. Michael McElreath, Journal of the North Carolina
"This may be the best one-volume introduction to the themes and methods of American legal history now in existence, which is all the more impressive because it is written out of the history of one state."—Alfred L. Brophy, Register of the Kentucky Historical
"This fascinating collection covers a broad range of social and legal issues and is well worth reading for both the legal issues explored and the details of conflicts that brought these cases before North Carolina courts."—Journal of American History
"Digs deeply into eight North Carolina cases from slavery times to the end of the civil rights era... a thoughtful and illuminating work."—Continuity and Change
