Daily Life on a Southern Plantation, 1853

(3) 4-6 As in 'Daily Life in a Covered Wagon', Erickson uses a family to make the information in the text accessible. This book follows two families (it's unclear whether they are fictional or not), one living in the "Big House" and the other a slave family, through a typical day--a technique that provides a personal, well-informed view of slavery. Sidebars provide additional information. Color photos and illustrations accompany the text. Glos., ind.
