Sand-Burrs is a novel written by George Carpenter Connor and was published in the year 1907. The story is set in the rural southern United States and follows the lives of two families, the Carters and the Worthams. The Carters are a wealthy family who own a plantation while the Worthams are poor and live on the outskirts of town. The novel explores the themes of class, race, and gender in the early 20th century.The main character of the novel is Mary Carter, the daughter of the plantation owner. Mary is a strong-willed and independent woman who defies the expectations of her gender and class. She falls in love with Will Wortham, the son of a poor farmer, and their relationship is met with opposition from both families. The novel also delves into the lives of the African American workers on the plantation and their struggles for equality.Sand-Burrs is a poignant portrayal of life in the South during a time of great social and political change. Connor's vivid descriptions of the landscape and the people who inhabit it bring the story to life, and the novel's themes of love, prejudice, and social justice still resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
