I doubt very seriously you can find a single book since the social history 
of that period has been addressed in so many books of various genres. One is 
particular is "The American South in the 20th Century," edited by Craig S. 
Pascoe et al.   I'd suggest you might want to contact Dr. John Kneebone at 
Virginia Commonwealth University's History Department and perhaps he might 
share some of the syllabus he uses for classes he teaches on 20th century 
social history.
