For the Love of Alabama

Journalism by Ron Casey and Bailey Thomson

Edited by Sam Hodges; By Ron Casey and Bailey Thomson; Foreword by Wayne Flynt
University of Alabama Press

For the Love of Alabama is a compilation of the most poignant and trenchant writing—editorials, reportage, and columns—by two of Alabama’s most committed and reform-minded journalists. Ron Casey and Bailey Thomson both died young: Casey at forty-eight and Thomson at fifty-four. Nevertheless, through their work at the Birmingham News and the Mobile Press-Register, respectively, they labored tirelessly to illuminate and confront the state’s chronic and interrelated problems of race, government, education, and poverty.
