The stories of three Southern regions from Reconstruction to World War II: the Mississippi-Yazoo Delta, the eastern Piedmont of Georgia, and the Georgia Sea Islands and Atlantic coast. Though these regions initially shared the histories and populations we associate with the idea of a Deep South - all had economies based on slave plantation labour in 1860 - their histories diverged sharply during the three generations after Reconstruction.
