Ogeechee Cross-Firings: A Novel is a historical fiction book written by Richard Malcolm Johnston and published in 1889. The story is set in the American South during the Reconstruction Era, a time of great political and social upheaval after the Civil War. The plot revolves around the lives of several characters, including a young lawyer, a wealthy landowner, and a former slave, as they navigate the challenges of the changing times. The book explores themes of race, politics, and class, as well as the impact of the war and its aftermath on the people of the South. It also delves into the complex relationships between former slave owners and their former slaves, as well as the tensions between different factions of society. Through vivid descriptions and well-developed characters, the author paints a picture of a society in transition, struggling to come to terms with the changes wrought by the war and the challenges of building a new future. The book is a powerful exploration of the human experience in times of great change and turmoil, and remains a classic of Southern literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
