"Offers a worthwhile look at migration, race, and labor in the modern South."
--The Journal of American History Vol. 97, No. 3

"A realization of the growing complexities of the modern, latest 'New South' calls for seeing the former Confederacy in a newer, globalized light." "The most important feature of this book is the fact that it expands the concept of race in the South beyond black and white." "Large, impersonal forces, such as corporations and globalizations, not to mention the ever-present issue of race, shaped the South in various ways after World War II, and the essays of Migration and Transformation of the Southern Workplace Since 1945 do an excellent job in showing these diverse issues."
--Register of the Kentucky Historical Society, vol. 108 No. 1

"Robert Cassanello and Colin J. Davis have done an outstanding job of selecting and organizing these essays. The works themselves cover a broad range of topics, places, and methodological approaches, building upon one another in their analyses of changes and continuities in the southern workplace. In doing so, they offer a prescient commentary on the region's past, present, and future."
--The Alabama Review
