The Cotton Kingdom: A Chronicle Of The Old South is a historical non-fiction book written by William Edward Dodd and first published in 1919. The book explores the history of the American South during the period of slavery and the cotton industry. It provides a detailed account of the social, economic, and political aspects of the cotton industry, which was the backbone of the Southern economy during this time. The book also delves into the daily lives of both the white plantation owners and the enslaved African Americans who worked the fields. Dodd examines the complex relationships between these two groups and the impact of slavery on the region’s culture and identity. The author draws on a variety of sources, including personal accounts, historical documents, and contemporary newspapers, to create a comprehensive and engaging narrative of the Old South. The Cotton Kingdom is a seminal work in the field of Southern history and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
