The Sweet South V1 is a novel written by Emmeline Stuart Wortley and published in 1856. The story is set in the American South and follows the lives of several characters, including plantation owners, slaves, and abolitionists. The novel explores themes of slavery, race relations, and the struggles of women in the 19th century. The main character, Virginia, is a young woman who is torn between her love for a plantation owner and her sympathy for the plight of slaves. As she navigates the complex social and political landscape of the South, she grapples with her own beliefs and values. The novel also features a cast of supporting characters, including Virginia's father, a plantation owner who is conflicted about the morality of slavery; her friend, a Northern abolitionist who comes to the South to teach slaves how to read; and several slaves, who struggle to survive in a system that treats them as property. Throughout the novel, Wortley paints a vivid picture of life in the antebellum South, with its lush landscapes, oppressive social hierarchies, and simmering tensions between North and South. The Sweet South V1 is a compelling and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that offers a nuanced portrayal of a complex and often troubling period in American history.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
