Natchez: Symbol of the Old South by Nola Nance Oliver is a comprehensive historical account of the city of Natchez, Mississippi, and its role in the antebellum South. The book examines the city's history from its founding in the early 18th century through the Civil War and beyond. Oliver delves into the city's unique cultural and social landscape, including its plantation economy, slave trade, and aristocratic society. She explores the lives of both the wealthy plantation owners and the enslaved people who worked on their estates, providing a nuanced and complex understanding of the antebellum South. The book also covers the city's role in the Civil War, including the siege of Natchez and the aftermath of the conflict. Oliver examines the ways in which the city and its residents adapted to the changing political and social landscape of the post-war South. Throughout the book, Oliver uses primary sources such as diaries, letters, and newspapers to provide a rich and detailed account of Natchez's history. She also includes numerous photographs and illustrations that bring the city's past to life. Overall, Natchez: Symbol of the Old South is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Southern history, antebellum society, and the Civil War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
