"Small towns in the South in the 1930s were orderly places, at least on the surface. They were segregated by race and class, and governed by hard-won wealth such as had been accumulated by the McCanes. A man like George McCane was as clearly positioned by his family background, education, and economic privilege as a mountain dominating a horizon."
