I am not originally from the South, but I have lived in Florida for the past seventeen years. I have always loved the stories, music, and art of the South, and now I know the history of them.
The course was extremely interesting and I highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in these things.
Fantastic!
Very interesting and informative course, I have a better understanding of southern culture, the stories, music and art I often heard my grandmother speak of.
Excellent!!
