"The first five volumes of the SAS Proceedings show that we had nerve, with essays on two new areas of anthropology, at that time, as well as a survey of current theoretical thought. We also had substance, with papers on many of the socio-cultural nooks and crannies of the South. Where else, for example, can you find intelligent instruction on how to escape through a swamp, throwing the sheriff and his hounds off your trail?"
