Is the Confederate battle flag a racist symbol—or a proud reminder of
Southern heritage? When Kate’s liberal-minded family moves from the
suburbs of New York City to a small town near Nashville, Kate is
convinced her life is over. Redford lives up to Kate’s low
expectations. The Confederate battle flag waves proudly in the sky,
the local diner serves grits and sweet tea, and country music rules
the airwaves. Then she meets Jackson Redford III, scion of the town
and embodiment of everything Dixie. And dang if brilliant, gorgeous
Jack doesn’t make Kate decide that maybe her new hometown isn’t so
bad after all. But a petition to replace the school’s Confederate
flag symbol is stirring up trouble. Kate dives right in, not afraid
to attack what she sees as offensive. Getting involved means making
enemies, though, and soon, Kate and Jack—and their families—find
themselves pitted against each other in a bitter controversy: not
just about the flag, but about what it means to be an American.From
