Planters and the Making of a "New South: Class, Politics, and Development in North Carolina, 1865-1900
Dwight B. Billings
Billings disputes the assumption that an incipient merchant class built the state's cotton mills; he reveals that a majority of the early mills were owned by prominent planters and agrarians. He shows the persistent hegemony and support for industrialization among the landed upper class and describes several generations of five powerful North Carolina families.
