Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strength in the Face of Adversity: The Women of Hampton Plantation: A Report Submitted to Hampton Plantation State Park In the years before the Civil War, the Hampton plantation was the site of personal luxury, family love, and patriotic fervor and the home of some of the more remarkable women of the South Carolina lowcountry. When Daniel Horry married Harriott Pinckney in 1768, he married into one of the most renowned families in South Carolina. His mother-in-law who would take up residence with the Horry family in the coming years was the famous Eliza Lucas Pinckney, who had managed her father's plantations at the age of 16 and had made the cultivation of indigo profitable through her crop experimentation. Eliza's daughter, Harriott, had spent most of her life at her mother's side, learning from her mother's example and developing a strength of character equal to her mother's. Daniel Horry's 19-year-old bride was more than 10 years younger than he, and she brought a youthful spirit to Hampton, which became a thriving rice plantation and the site of many festive family gatherings. Soon after the marriage of Daniel and Harriott, Hampton would be filled with the laughter of their children, and in the decades to come it would be home to their grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.

Book Synopsis God's Children by : Archibald Rutledge
Download or read book God's Children written by Archibald Rutledge and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1940s memoir provides a glimpse into the life and thoughts of a South Carolina plantation owner in the post-Civil War, pre-Civil Rights era. In 1937, after decades in the North, Archibald Rutledge returned to what he described as the “hyacinth days and camellia nights” of his native Carolina Lowcountry to restore his ancestral home, Hampton Plantation, which had been in his family since 1730. Originally published in 1947, these pages describe, in intimate and fascinating detail, the plantation life he found upon his return. In the simple, lyrical language of the first poet laureate of South Carolina, Rutledge portrays the black men and women, descendants of slaves, who labored alongside him in the marshes of the Santee, the stories they shared, and his interactions with them. God’s Children serves as a vivid snapshot of day-to-day activity on a plantation in the American South in the first half of the twentieth century, and of a lifestyle that was ever so slowly disappearing.

Book excerpt: In 1681, Boone Hall Plantation began its long history in the Lowcountry. From the Boone family through the McRaes, the plantation's residents, black and white, all left a significant imprint upon the land as the plantation survived two wars and became the longest running brickyard in the area. As a center of tourism, Boone Hall embodies the romance of the South while providing the resources necessary to understand the network of lives that has inhabited the plantation for over 300 years. The plantation is tightly linked with the community and draws upon that relationship in its many educational programs. Numerous festivals are celebrated at the plantation, including the Strawberry Festival and Happy Jack's Pumpkin Patch, and many seek the unique landscape for their social gatherings. Through these relationships and events, Boone Hall will endure well into the future.

Book Synopsis James Henry Hammond and the Old South by : Drew Gilpin Faust
Download or read book James Henry Hammond and the Old South written by Drew Gilpin Faust and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1985-07-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From his birth in 1807 to his death in 1864 as Sherman’s troops marched in triumph toward South Carolina, James Henry Hammond witnessed the rise and fall of the cotton kingdom of the Old South. Planter, politician, and an ardent defender of slavery and white supremacy, Hammond built a career for himself that in its breadth and ambition provides a composite portrait of the civilization in which he flourished. A long-awaited biography, Drew Gilpin Faust’s James Henry Hammond and the Old South reveals the South Carolina planter who was at once characteristic of his age and unique among men of his time. Of humble origins, Hammond set out to conquer his society, to make himself a leader and a spokesman for the Old South. Through marriage he acquired a large plantation and many slaves, and then through their coerced labor, shrewd management practices, and progressive farming techniques, he soon became one of the wealthiest men in South Carolina. He was elected to the United States House of Representatives and served as governor of his state. Evidence that he sexually abused four of his teenage nieces forced him to retreat for many years to his plantation, but eventually he returned to public view, winning a seat in the United States Senate that he resigned when South Carolina seceded from the Union. James Henry Hammond’s ambition was unquenchable. It consumed his life, directed almost his every move and ultimately, in its titanic calculation and rigidity, destroyed the man confined within it. Like Faulkner’s Thomas Sutpen, Faust suggests, Hammond had a “design,” a compulsion to direct every moment of his life toward self-aggrandizement and legitimation. Despite his sexual abuse of enslaved females and their children, like other plantation owners, Hammond envisioned himself as benevolent and paternal. He saw himself as the absolute master of his family and slaves, but neither his family, his slaves, nor even his own behavior was completely under his command. Hammond fervently wished to perfect and preserve what he envisioned as the southern way of life. But these goals were also beyond his control. At the time of his death it had become clear to him that his world, the world of the Old South, had ended.
