About this product
Product Information
Eugene Talmadge's career as a politician lasted twenty years, and during that time he dominated Georgia's political structure as few men have in any state's history. The Wild Man from Sugar Creek is a fascinating biography of one of the South's most colorful political figures. It is also a revealing analysis of the Georgia mind in the 1930s, reminiscent in its sociological reflections of Cash's Mind of the South . A product of "Old South" thinking, Talmadge was elected governor of Georgia four times. His significance lay in his total commitment to fighting the liberalization of the southern mind and the quickening demise of the South's traditional culture. He saw Roosevelt's New Deal as the culprit, and he fought desperately against the rise of big government. "He was," says William Anderson, "the champion of the mythical little man, of the have-nots, the dejected, the mentally awash, the orphans of rural life propelled by the depression to the doorsteps of the city, alone, uncertain, afraid." The Wild Man from Sugar Creek is based in large part on interviews with living contemporaries of Talmadge, so that the book's central character comes alive in much the same way that Huey Long does in T. Harry Williams' prize-winning biography of the Louisiana political figure. The first full biography of Talmadge, The Wild Man from Sugar Creek captures the monumental changes in the southern mind during the tumultuous 1930s, and recreates the struggle between a fiercely independent politician and the rush of change in a conservative land. "The poor dirt farmer ain't got but three friends on this earth: God Almighty, Sears Roebuck and Gene Talmadge." --Eugene Talmadge

Seller is great and responsive. USPS is awful. They gave my package to the wrong address, it was opened and another expected packaged Blu Ray was opened, lost it original mail packaging, and inserted into this order's package, then put infrpn of my door later that day. Thankfully nothing was damaged. Overall great nostalgic X-men comic, and great repsonsive seller. USPS is the only problem here.

I ordered this book May 14th and didn't receive it until May 28th. I waited 5 days to contact the seller after purchase because they hadn't shipped yet. They thanked me for reaching out but still they exceeded the delivery date. I have never had to wait this long for a delivery. Very poor customer service. Booked arrived in good condition despite inadequate packaging. I will not purchase from this seller again.
