They Didn't Put That on the Huntley-brinkley! - A Vagabond Reporter Encounters the New South

Informationen zum Autor HUNTER JAMES (1932-2018) was a native and resident of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. A newspaper journalist covering the South for more than thirty years, he spent much of that time as a correspondent for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and as an editorial writer for that paper and other east-coast dailies. He is the author of nine books, including Smile Pretty and Say Jesus: The Last Great Days of PTL (Georgia). Drawing on the author's long career as a southern journalist, this series of closely related sketches, stories, and essays recounts what James calls the "hidden story of the civil rights movement," set mainly in Georgia, North Carolina, and Alabama from the late 1950s to the early 1970s.
