The era of the southern plantation was a time when many wealthy planters lived in grand style next door to the slaves who helped them achieve it. Life on a Plantation introduces children to the daily routine of a plantation and compares the daily lives of both masters and slaves explaining their roles and duties. Slavery is shown in the context of day-to-day work. Young readers will learn about: - life in the Big House and in the slave quarters - work in the cotton, rice, and tobacco fields - the customs and traditions of both black and white communities - how the slaves helped support each other and pass along African American traditions
