Though the American South played an important role in contributing to the country's culture, it wasn't until the mid-nineteenth century that a distinctly Southern literary voice began to emerge. Kentucky-based author James Lane Allen's gift for description and unforgettable characters helped him rise to prominence among the "local color" literary movement in the South, and his prodigious talents are on full display in the novella A Kentucky Cardinal.
