Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sunny South; Or the Southerner at Home: Embracing Five Years´ Experience of a Northern Governess in the Land of the Sugar and the Cotton To George G. Evans, Esq. Sir: - This manuscript of "Letters from the South," which I send you for your perusal, has been, as you will see, very carefully and plainly written out for the press, by a young Governess of this State, who diffidently declines to give her name in connection with the work. It is true that the authorship of what has been composed from materials mainly by another hand, cannot be wholly claimed by either party: the work, therefore, if published by you, must go unaccredited and upon its own intrinsic merits. Thirty years´ residence at the South, chiefly at Natchez, Nashville, and Mobile, enables me to form, perhaps, a correct estimate of the accuracy of a work professing to relate the experiences of a stranger from the North, sojourning in the land of "tobacco, cotton, and sugar." The writer has chosen to give the materials collected from experience and observation in the attractive form of familiar letters, addressed, by request, to an intelligent literary gentleman and editor in the North.
