Memorials of a Southern Planter is a memoir written by Susan Dabney Smedes, detailing her life growing up in the antebellum South. Smedes was the daughter of a wealthy planter in Mississippi and her memoir provides a glimpse into the daily life and social customs of the Southern aristocracy before the Civil War. The book covers topics such as plantation life, education, religion, and the institution of slavery. Smedes also reflects on the impact of the Civil War on her family and the South as a whole. The memoir offers a personal and intimate perspective on a pivotal period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
