March/April 2012 Issue

Our March/April issue went to the printer on February 1. Dr. Boyd Cathey continues our Sesquicentennial Series with his essay on The Land We Love: Southern Tradition and Our Future. Dr. Cathey is an excellent writer and really gives us a look at where we’ve been and what may lie in our future. I think you’ll enjoy it. We are slowing losing our Real Sons. These gentlemen are our last living links to our ancestors. Two of our compatriots passed away as we were finishing up this issue and a final tribute is included. Plus our usual features and articles.
