Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Idyl of the South, Vol. 1 of 2 In "An Idyl of the South" I have aimed to tell the story of an Octoroon. Her life discloses a type. My readers will form their own conclusions of the sociological conditions suggested by the narrative. It were better to think over some things in silence than to discuss them openly. The story is true to the life. It strikes at the root of certain conditions which have been thrust upon us by the humiliating consequences of Slavery. Some complications in the social order, obtaining in the development of the South before the War, are exceedingly interesting from our present viewpoint, instructed as we are by the larger observations and experiences of a more enlightened civilization. I hope to deal with certain new phases of the subject in a work which is to follow this volume. The eventualities of Emancipation and Reconstruction are upon us for consideration, and some deep and grave matters cannot be thrust aside as trivial things. The reckoning must come.
