Robinson, Julie. "Book Review: THE SOUTHERN CRITICS." WASHINGTON TIMES September 10, 2010.

Arbery, Glenn C., ed.  The Southern Critics: an Anthology.  Wilmington, DE: Intercollegiate Studies Institute, 2010.

A Southern critic by any other name would be an Agrarian or Fugitive. Four of the writers featured in this book defended their way of life against modernity 80 years ago at Vanderbilt University in "I'll Take My Stand." The others given voice here are literary critics, writers of fiction, poets and teachers. They never apologize for the South but shelter and uphold the best of their heritage. . . .
