Adoption, Memory, and Cold War Greece
Reveals the history of how 3,000 Greek children were shipped to the United States for adoption in the postwar period
"Demetrios is Now Jimmy"
This work explores the arrival of Greek immigrants to the southern urban areas, in the early 1900s, and their remarkably rapid adjustment and acculturation to life in the New South. The majority of these immigrants became modest entrepreneurs and achieved some economic prosperity, which was at the root of their successful settlement in the growing southern cities. Although there was no "melting pot," these newcomers swiftly adapted to the evolving American social, economic, and political tenets - as practiced in the South - even as they retained and adjusted their own deeply ingrained cultural and religious traditions.
The American South
In The American South: A History, Fifth Edition, William J. Cooper, Jr. and Thomas E. Terrill demonstrate their belief that it is impossible to divorce the history of the South from the history of the United States. The authors' analysis underscores the complex interaction between the South as a distinct region and the South as an inescapable part of America. Cooper and Terrill show how the resulting tension has often propelled section and nation toward collision. In supporting their thesis, the authors draw on the tremendous amount of profoundly new scholarship in Southern history. Each volume includes a substantial bibliographical essay—completely updated for this edition—which provides the reader with a guide to literature on the history of the South. This volume contains updated chapters, and tables.
