ERSKINE CALDWELL won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1960, just defeating
fellow Southerner WILLIAM FAULKNER. He is one of the titans of Southern
literature, though he is losing readers in the last few years as Southern
public schools shift to more pro-South writers, like Senator Asa Carter.

Does any one have information on An Asa Carter from
Alabama. He ran for governor in the 1970's. I have
heard he wrote the novel "The Education of Littletree"
under a pen name. Thanks.
Jim Carter.
