Summary: Beautifully Done!
Review: Picked up this book at Frogmore Plantation in Louisiana (A living history and modern cotton plantation--check out frogmoreplantation. com!) for some young friends. It's a fascinating peek into plantation life in the 1850's. Highly recommended for children and adults alike.

Summary: Excellent, interesting and accurate!
Review: This book really makes history interesting. We recognized many of the photos from a former plantation in our home town. I'd recommend it to both adults and children - it's well written (and researched) and has good photos.
