A Woman Rice Planter: Southern Classics Series by Elizabeth A. Pringle | Historical Memoir of Southern Agriculture | Perfect for Book Clubs & American History Enthusiasts

This book will transport you back to time when faith and character were innate. You walk with this women as she single-handedly manages rice plantations, yes two plantations, with self determination and after the civil war plantations evolve from a slave run plantations to a "land share" plantations. I have read many a book and this has to be at the top of my list of "must read" and I would recommend every American school to have a copy of this book in their libraries for it is a historical value. Picture a combination of Scarlet O'hara with her determination and Melanie Wilkes' with her kindness, {Ashley's wife} rolled up in one. Just a beautiful book for the soul. Enjoy.
