A Yankee School Teacher In Virginia: A Tale Of The Old Dominion In The Transition State is a novel written by Lydia Wood Baldwin. The story is set in Virginia during the transition period after the Civil War. The protagonist of the story is a young woman named Ellen, who is a Yankee school teacher. She moves to Virginia to teach in a school for African American children. The novel follows Ellen's experiences in the South, where she encounters racism and prejudice from the local residents. Despite the challenges, Ellen perseveres and works to educate her students and make a difference in their lives. Along the way, she meets a variety of characters, including a wealthy plantation owner and a young African American girl who becomes her prot�����g�����. The novel explores themes of race, education, and social justice, and provides a glimpse into the complexities of life in the post-Civil War South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
