Social Life In Old New Orleans: Being Recollections Of My Girlhood (1912) is a memoir written by Eliza Ripley, which offers a firsthand account of life in New Orleans during the mid-19th century. The book provides an insight into the social customs, traditions, and lifestyles of the people living in the city at that time. Ripley shares her personal experiences of growing up in a wealthy family and attending social events, such as balls, parties, and weddings, where she interacted with the city's elite. She also describes the vibrant cultural scene in New Orleans, including the city's music, cuisine, and architecture. Through her recollections, Ripley paints a vivid picture of a society that was complex, diverse, and deeply rooted in history. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of New Orleans or the social history of the American South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
