Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XX. Moves to Marietta--A Snowstorm--Experience with Some Preachers--Hotel Experiences--Cave Spring --The Deaf Mutes--Salt Springs Camp Ground. We had a railroad all the way to Rome. When we reached there, brother LaPrade met us at the depot. I knew him and his parents at Appalachicola, when he was a boy. He took us to the parsonage, and although he had his mother, sister, little boy, and sick wife to take care of, he made us comfortable. We looked around and around for a house, but rents were high and houses scarce. I learned that the district only paid the year before about eight hundred dollars, just half the amount paid by the district I had left. I knew I could not pay large rent on that salary. It has been the settled habit of my life to live within my income, and generally a little below it. I have suffered for many of the luxuries of life, but never from debt but once. There came a snowstorm, the deepest snow I ever saw. I finally decided to leave Rome, and try my hand on Marietta; and away through the snow we went. When we reached Kingston the train from Chattanooga was snow-bound, and there was no certainty as to when it would arrive. We could not go to the hotel for fear of being left, and to spend the whole night in the depot was intensely disagreeable. The good brother who ran the depot invited me and my wife and children and three other preachers--Baptist, Episcopal, and Presbyterian--into the back room. My two younger ones had the sore eyes, and my patient wife was doing all she could to take care of the four children. I had on a fine suit of clothes, and not wanting to get them soiled, I wore a large white linen duster--and the snow a foot deep. I was a very unclerical-looking man. It was about two o'clock when the...
Creating an Old South

Pages : 412
Book Description
Set on the antebellum southern frontier, this book uses the history of two counties in Florida's panhandle to tell the story of the migrations, disruptions, and settlements that made the plantation South. Soon after the United States acquired Florida from Spain in 1821, migrants from older southern states began settling the land that became Jackson and Leon Counties. Slaves, torn from family and community, were forced to carve plantations from the woods of Middle Florida, while planters and less wealthy white men battled over the social, political, and economic institutions of their new society. Conflict between white men became full-scale crisis in the 1840s, but when sectional conflict seemed to threaten slavery, the whites of Middle Florida found common ground. In politics and everyday encounters, they enshrined the ideal of white male equality--and black inequality. To mask their painful memories of crisis, the planter elite told themselves that their society had been transplanted from older states without conflict. But this myth of an "Old," changeless South only papered over the struggles that transformed slave society in the course of its expansion. In fact, that myth continues to shroud from our view the plantation frontier, the very engine of conflict that had led to the myth's creation.
More Generals in Gray
Author: Bruce S. AllardicePublisher: LSU Press

Book Description
In this masterpiece of research, a splendid supplement to Ezra J. Warner's Generals in Gray, Bruce S. Allardice brings to light a neglected class of officers: the Confederacy's "other" generals -- men who attained their rank outside the usual avenue of appointment by President Jefferson Davis and who had been virtually forgotten as a consequence. Explaining that the process of becoming a general was fraught with politics, lobbying, intrigue, accident, mismanagement, and chance, Allardice identifies six main categories of legitimate claimants to the rank of Confederate General -- two more than historians have traditionally recognized. He presents a substantial biographical sketch of 137 generals not found in Warner's original and a short bibliography of each. For the vast majority, his is the first treatment ever published.
