For Reference - North vs. South Legacy

The pages posted to this article are scanned from an October 1991 issue of American Heritage magazine.  Since childhood in Texas, I had an ongoing curiosity about the substance and origins of the regional differences between us Cowboys and those Yankees.

After traveling fairly extensively and working for a few decades with a lot of real, live Yankees I had the opportunities to gain first hand experience dealing with and observing those differences. It took nearly 30-years after leaving Cowtown to find a clear and rational discussion of the phenomena put down in print.  The pages that follow are about the best I ever found on the subject.
