Aunt Phillis's Cabin: Or Southern Life As It Is is a book written by Mary Henderson Eastman in 1852. The book is a fictional account of life on a plantation in the American South, told from the perspective of a Northern woman who visits her Southern relatives. The main character, Aunt Phillis, is a slave who is portrayed as intelligent, kind, and loyal to her white owners. The book explores themes of slavery, race relations, and the differences between Northern and Southern culture. Despite its sympathetic portrayal of slavery, the book was controversial at the time of its publication and remains a significant work of literature today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
