Fetching the Old Southwest

Fetching the Old Southwest is by every measure a major achievement, the work of a distinguished Americanist thinking and writing at the top of his game. James H. Justus has produced a book that will become the touchstone for all future investigations in the area. - William Bedford Clark; ""James Justus has written a splendid book. It is and will be the standard book on what we have come to call the 'humorists' of the Old Southwest. This book is a delight to read."" - James Cox
