"Generally, the Southern writers allowed into 'mainstream'
publications are either those who have made a career out of
libeling the home folks or those too important to be ignored.
Amazingly and refreshingly, Chronicles has not only treated
Southern subjects abundantly and fairly but has welcomed many
Southern writers who are not among the great but who have something
to say and can say it well." So writes Clyde Wilson in his
Introduction to Garden of the Beaux Arts, the first volume of
Chronicles of the South, a collection of articles from Chronicles:
A Magazine of American Culture.Published in Rockford, Illinois,
Chronicles has nevertheless been home to some of the best writing
on the South over the last quarter of a century. Volume One
features contributions by Southern novelists and poets, including
Donald Davidson, Madison Smartt Bell, Fred Chappell, and Walker
Percy; scholars such as M.E. Bradford, Ward Allen, Russell Kirk,
J.O. Tate, Grady McWhiney, Tom Landess, Mark Royden Winchell, and
Donald Livingston; and politicians and commentators, including U.S.
Rep. John J. Duncan, syndicated columnist William Murchison, and
Chronicles editors Aaron D. Wolf, Clyde Wilson, and Thomas Fleming.
