The Poor White Or The Rebel Conscript is a novel written by Emily Clemens Pearson and published in 1864. The book tells the story of a poor white family living in the South during the American Civil War. The main character, Ned Graham, is forced to join the Confederate Army as a conscript, leaving behind his family and the woman he loves. As he fights in the war, Ned becomes disillusioned with the cause and begins to question the morality of the Confederacy's actions. Meanwhile, his family struggles to survive in a war-torn region, facing poverty, hunger, and violence. The novel explores themes of class, race, and loyalty, as well as the devastating impact of war on both individuals and communities. Through Ned's experiences, the book offers a critical perspective on the Confederate cause and the social and economic structures that perpetuated inequality in the South. Overall, The Poor White Or The Rebel Conscript is a powerful and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that sheds light on a turbulent period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
