Abstract
Henry Grady continues to be romanticized as a visionary of the New South. This essay argues that whatever his dreams, Grady tragically erred in selecting rhetorical symbols and devices which had more potential for hindering a genuinely new spirit among southerners. Walter Hines Page is offered as a more realistic spokesperson for southern innovations.
