The Planter Or, Thirteen Years In The South By A Northern Man is a book written by David Brown. It is a personal account of his experiences living in the American South for thirteen years as a planter. The book is set during the mid-19th century, a time when slavery was still legal in the United States.Brown, a Northern man, moved to the South to pursue his dream of becoming a successful planter. He describes the challenges he faced, including the harsh climate, disease, and the difficulty of managing slaves. He also discusses his relationships with other planters and the local community, as well as his observations of Southern culture and customs.The book provides a unique perspective on life in the South during this time period, as it is written by someone who was not originally from the region. It offers insights into the economic, social, and political factors that shaped life in the South, including the impact of slavery on both slaveholders and slaves.Overall, The Planter Or, Thirteen Years In The South By A Northern Man is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in American history, particularly the history of the South and the institution of slavery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
