Pleasant Waters: A Story of Southern Life and Character is a novel written by Graham Claytor and published in 1888. The book is set in the American South and follows the lives of several characters living in the fictional town of Pleasant Waters. The story explores themes of love, family, and social class during a time of great change in the South. The main character, Lucy, is a young woman from a wealthy family who falls in love with a poor farmer named Tom. Their relationship is met with disapproval from Lucy's family, who want her to marry someone of their own social class. The novel also follows the lives of other characters, including Lucy's brother, who struggles with alcoholism, and a former slave who is trying to make a new life for himself after the Civil War. Through these characters, Claytor paints a vivid picture of life in the South during the late 19th century. The novel is a poignant and insightful look into the complexities of Southern society during a time of great change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
