A scion of the Protestant elite, Theodore Roosevelt was an unlikely ally of the waves of impoverished Jewish newcomers who crowded the docks at Ellis Island. Yet from his earliest years he forged ties with Jews never before witnessed in a president.

But it also reveals a man of contradictions whose checkered approach to Jewish issues was no less conflicted than the nation he led.

The Southern Fault Line explores the under-appreciated division in the South between the oligarchic rule of plantation owners and industrialists on the one hand, and the more democratic mindset of the mountain-dwelling small farmers on the other.

Bryan Jones draws from his own family's centuries-old history in the region to explore the rise and fall of the "two minds" of the South.
