	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Erskine Caldwell (1903-1987) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
		Caldwell's mastery of the short-story form, together with his outrage over social injustice and his great talent, enabled him to write such unforgettable pieces as "The Growing Season," which poignantly portrays a cotton farmer's travail, and "Candy-Man Beechum" and "Kneel to the Rising Sun," both burning condemnations of racism.
		Caldwell made a good deal of money from his paperback publishers—at least $200,000 between 1945 and 1951 without writing a word—but his cooperation with them adversely affected his reputation within the literary establishment and helped ensure that his work would be neglected by scholars.
		Caldwell's harsh criticism of social injustice in his native region brought forth equally sharp criticism by some white southerners who accused him of being a communist, a corrupter of morals, and a traitor to the South.

		The son of the Rev. Ira Sylvester Caldwell and the former Caroline Bell, Erskine Preston Caldwell was born in White Oak, Coweta County, GA, in 1903.
		Caldwell's two novels laid bare the shape, the depth, and even the smell of that poverty in a way that no prior literary work ever had; sections of both books were shocking, other parts were funny, and others were sad, while still others were downright titillating in their depiction of raw lust and sexuality.
		Caldwell's years of observing his father's parishioners and the poor among whom he lived had provided him with a shockingly honest vision of his native region -- too honest for many of his southern compatriots, who would have preferred that he look elsewhere for stories to tell.

		The youngest son of David Erskine, writer to the signet in Edinburgh, and of Anne Graham, of the Grahams of Airth, he was descended from John, Earl of Mar, regent of Scotland in the reign of James VI, and a grandson of Colonel John Erskine of Carnock.
		Erskine had little interest in the "historical criticism" of Christianity, and regarded as the only proper criterion of its truth its conformity or nonconformity with man's spiritual nature, and its adaptability or non-adaptability to man's spiritual needs.
		Erskine had at one stage described socialism as "a predatory creed", but by the time of the First World War he was becoming more politically radical and finding sympathy with the cause of figures such as Maclean.

	Erskine Caldwell's greasy hairball of a novel. By Dwight Garner - Slate Magazine
		Erskine Caldwell's Tobacco Road, published in 1932, is a greasy hairball of a novel—one of the sickest and most lurid books to have emerged from the literature of the American South.
		He wanted the novel to be, as Dan B. Miller notes in his gripping 1995 biography, Erskine Caldwell: The Journey From Tobacco Road, a rebuke to the perfumed "moonlight and magnolias" literature of the south.
		But as Caldwell arranges for his characters to engage in ever more absurd actions, he can remind you of Robert Mitchum's character in The Night of the Hunter, careering around with LOVE tattooed on one set of bruised knuckles and HATE on the other, pummeling everything he claims to love into submission.
