Our World or The Slaveholder's Daughter is a historical fiction novel written by F. Colburn Adams. The story is set in the United States during the mid-19th century, at the height of the American Civil War. The book follows the life of a young woman named Mary, who is the daughter of a wealthy slaveholder in the South. Mary is raised in a privileged environment, but she becomes increasingly aware of the injustices of slavery and the toll it takes on the people who are enslaved.As the Civil War breaks out, Mary's family is torn apart, and she is forced to confront the harsh realities of the conflict. She meets people from all walks of life, including soldiers, abolitionists, and former slaves, and she begins to question her own beliefs and values. Along the way, Mary discovers that her world is not as black and white as she once thought, and she must make difficult choices about where her loyalties lie.The novel is a powerful exploration of the human cost of slavery and war, and it offers a nuanced portrayal of the complex issues that shaped American history. It is a compelling read for anyone interested in the Civil War era, as well as those who enjoy historical fiction with strong characters and thought-provoking themes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
