The Fugitives were joined by eight other southerners, and the result was the 1930 Agrarian manifesto \u003ci\u003eI'll Take My Stand\u003c\/i\u003e. Published in 1982, this retrospective look at the Nashville Agrarians traces the evolution of \u003ci\u003eI'll Take My Stand\u003c\/i\u003e, explains what the men who made it were trying to do, and argues that time has proved them to be prophets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTHOMAS DANIEL YOUNG (1919-1997) is the author or editor of many influential books on southern writers including \u003ci\u003eThe Literature of the South\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eConversations with Malcolm Cowley\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTennessee Writers\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eGentleman in a Dustcoat: A Biography of John Crowe Ransom\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 106\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.25 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53274624164147,"sku":"9780820334752","price":47.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/1oyb8Nb2UE9780820334752.webp?v=1776896642","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/waking-their-neighbors-up-the-nashville-agrarians-rediscovered-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
