A Georgia Southern University professor has just had his third historical novel published. Clarion Books has published "Cy in Chains," a book about the continued mistreatment of African-Americans in the post-Civil War South, by David L. Dudley, a professor of English and the chairman of the university's Department of Literature and Philosophy. "‘Cy in Chains' was inspired by something that I read in ‘The Rise and Fall of Jim Crow,' which was a companion book for an old PBS series. There is a chapter about the prison experience of African-Americans after the Civil War," he said.
