| Summary | "John March, Southerner" by George W. Cable is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set in the post-Civil War South, the story follows young John March, the son of Judge Powhatan March, as he navigates a world forever changed by war and the complexities of societal change. The narrative is deeply embedded in Southern culture and addresses themes of class, race, and the shifting identities in a society grappling with its past. The opening portion introduces the town of Suez in Dixie, illustrating its charm juxtaposed with the scars of war. We meet Judge March and his son, John, embarking on a journey through their small town, which serves as a backdrop for their relationship dynamics. The Judge is seen as a gentle yet influential figure, embodying the traditions of the South, while the young John, a curious and imaginative boy, is portrayed as both innocent and observant amid the tensions surrounding him. The scene sets the stage for John's coming-of-age story as he encounters various characters who embody the conflicting ideals of freedom and social responsibility in the New South.
