On The Winning Side: A Southern Story Of Ante-Bellum Times is a historical novel written by Jeannette H. Walworth in 1893. The story is set in the pre-Civil War South and follows the life of a young woman named Virginia, who lives on a plantation in Virginia. Virginia is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to uphold the traditions and values of the South, even as the country is on the brink of war.As the story unfolds, Virginia becomes involved in a complicated love triangle with two men: her childhood friend, Harry, who is a Union sympathizer, and the wealthy and powerful plantation owner, Colonel Beverley. Virginia is torn between her loyalty to the South and her love for Harry, who represents everything she has been taught to hate. Meanwhile, Colonel Beverley is determined to win Virginia’s heart and keep her on the winning side of the impending conflict.Throughout the novel, Walworth explores themes of love, loyalty, and the complexities of life in the South during this tumultuous time in American history. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the mindset of Southern plantation owners and their families, as well as the struggles faced by those who opposed slavery and secession.Overall, On The Winning Side: A Southern Story Of Ante-Bellum Times is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the events leading up to the Civil War. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Southern history, the Civil War, or the complexities of human relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
