Old Plantation Days
$6.00

by Nancy Bostick De Sausurre
Originally Published in 1909
Reprint Edition, 2014
paperback; 72 pages

Written in the form of a letter to her granddaughter, the author of this little book describes her plantation childhood, her marriage and parenthood, and her experiences during the War Between the States and Reconstruction. In response to what she believed were misconceptions about antebellum Southern slavery, she argues that while some slaveholders were cruel, the majority were conscientious about the well-being of their servants and looked upon them as members of the household.
