The author, who pioneered historical studies of the South and was criticized by Southern elites for his views on class and slaveholders, profiles three leaders in this 1911 book: President Thomas Jefferson, secessionist advocate John C. Calhoun, and Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Dodd claims Jefferson's South was the true South, and those of Calhoun and Davis were deviations from the course.
