The Harrington Letters is a historical book written by J.G. De Roulhac Hamilton. It is a collection of letters between two prominent families in North Carolina, the Harringtons and the Joneses, during the years leading up to the Civil War. The letters provide insight into the social, economic, and political climate of the time, as well as the attitudes and beliefs of the people living in the South.The book is divided into two parts. The first part includes letters written by members of the Harrington family, who were wealthy plantation owners in North Carolina. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including family news, business dealings, and political events. They also provide a glimpse into the daily lives of the Harringtons and their slaves.The second part of the book includes letters written by members of the Jones family, who were also prominent in North Carolina society. These letters offer a different perspective on the events of the time, as the Joneses were more politically active and involved in the abolitionist movement.Overall, The Harrington Letters is a fascinating look at life in the South before the Civil War. It provides a unique perspective on the attitudes and beliefs of the people living in this region, and sheds light on the complex social and political issues that led to the outbreak of the war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
