by Frances Wallace Taylor

The Leverett Letters: Correspondence of a South Carolina Family 1851-1868 Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Personal correspondence that allows an unprecedented look into southern culture of the Civil War era.

Book News Annotation:

The nine children of Mary Maxcy Leverett wrote home frequently as they ventured from their South Carolina plantation to college, postgraduate study, travel in Europe, and service in the Confederate Army. The 230 letters open a vivid window into the life of the planter class from the later antebellum era through Reconstruction. Abundant notes identify people and events mentioned, biographical profiles are provided for the correspondents, and an index give access to personal and place names.
