An essay on plantation life and the Old South as remembered by one of Virginia's finest writers. In the introduction to this volume, Thomas Nelson Page states that his purpose is to correct the picture of Southern life portrayed by Harriet Beecher Stowe and by the post-Reconstruction writings of the 1880s.The result is a charming essay of plantation life. Originally published in 1892 as a chapter in his book The Old South: Essays Social and Political, this edition is a reprint of the edition of 1897, where this essay was published by itself along with it own introduction and illustrations.
Thomas Nelson Page (1853-1922), a native of Virginia, wrote extensively about the Old South, including several novels, and biographies of Robert E. Lee and Thomas Jefferson. From 1913 to 1919, he was US Ambassador to Italy.
