Publication date was February 15, 1938. Set in Mississippi during the Civil War and Reconstruction, Faulkner's tenth book, The Unvanquished, focuses on the Sartoris family, who with their code of personal responsibility and courage, stand for the best of the Old South's traditions. Here the reader will meet Colonel Sartoris, the head of the family; his young son Bayard who finds an alternative to bloodshed; Ringo, a perceptive black child who is considered part of the family; independent, obstinate Cousin Drusilla who exchanges her dresses for a uniform; and Granny, the matriarch.
