"Perhaps surprisingly, the Old South's most prolific and famous author was also a highly sought after and respected speaker. Ably edited, this new collection of Simms's orations, together with invaluable introductions by David Moltke-Hansen and John D. Miller, illuminates the rich intellectual life of the mid-nineteenth-century South."—Jonathan Daniel Wells, professor of history, University of Michigan, and author of The Kidnapping Club (2020)
"With a keen appreciation of both historical and literary context, John D. Miller has collected and introduced the major speeches of William Gilmore Simms, making a significant contribution to the study of Simms and the Old South."—Adam L. Tate, professor of history, Clayton State University
