What does it mean to be a man in the pre-Civil War South? And how can we answer the question from the perspective of the early twenty-first century? This book does so by revealing how early nineteenth-century Southern humorists addressed the anxieties felt by men seeking to chart a new path between the old honor culture and the new market culture.
