Resumo

In 1937, Erskine Caldwell, the noted Southern author of Tobacco Road and God's Little Acre , and Margaret Bourke-White, the famous photographer for Fortune and Life magazines, published You Have Seen Their Faces . The documentary was a devastating broadside on Southern delinquencies. Right from the opening paragraph, Caldwell began painting an image of the South as a benighted region.
