Title: Confederates in the Attic
Product review: Recently purchased Confederates in the Attic to read on my Kindle. I am a born and bred southerner. Purchased the book to get a different perspective regarding our attitudes toward northerners and to understand why southerners have a history of harboring bad feelings about losing the Civil War. Tony Horwitz comes across as someone that had a pre-opinion of the south that was debasing. His negative bias about the South is obvious. His descriptions of southerners and the south are grossly inaccurate. In my opinion he goes out of his way to paint a negative picture that is not close to how people and places are really like. Could not finished the book--I have been to several places he wrote about in the book and his descriptions were so far off I have to stop readng. Did not trust his book could provide any insights that are worth knowing about. Don't waste your time. Phil/Raleigh/NC
