Gold That Did Not Glitter is a novel written by Virginius Dabney and published in 1889. The story is set in the American South during the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. The novel follows the life of a young man named Robert Carrington, who is the heir to a wealthy plantation in Virginia. Despite his privileged upbringing, Robert is drawn to the world of politics and becomes involved in the Republican Party, which is opposed by the majority of white Southerners. As Robert becomes more involved in politics, he faces increasing opposition and threats from his own community. He is forced to confront the reality of racial inequality and violence in the South, and must decide whether to continue fighting for his beliefs or to abandon his principles in order to protect himself and his family. Gold That Did Not Glitter is a powerful exploration of the complex issues of race, politics, and identity in the aftermath of the Civil War. It offers a vivid portrayal of the struggles and conflicts faced by those who sought to rebuild a shattered society, and the difficult choices they had to make in order to survive.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
