Reviews

Winner of the 2017 V.O. Key Award, Southern Political Science Association Winner of the 2016 J. David Greenstone Book Prize, Politics and History Section of the American Political Science Association "Paths Out of Dixie is the rare gem of American politics destined to be a touchstone across political science subfields."--Jason Brownlee, Journal of Politics "Mickey's work rests on an exhaustive treasure of archival research that displays a stunning commitment to the best traditions of American political development scholarship. Paths Out of Dixie is a worthy and indeed more rigorous successor to Key's (1949) Southern Politics."--Kimberley Johnson, Journal of Politics
