Aunt Phebe, Uncle Tom And Others

""Aunt Phebe, Uncle Tom And Others: Character Studies Among The Old Slaves Of The South, Fifty Years After"" is a non-fiction book written by Essie Collins Matthews. The book is a collection of character studies of old slaves living in the southern United States fifty years after the abolition of slavery. Matthews, who was born in the South during the Jim Crow era, conducted interviews with former slaves and their descendants to gather information for the book. The character studies in the book provide a glimpse into the lives of these individuals, their experiences as slaves, and their struggles to adapt to life as free individuals. The book also explores the impact of slavery on subsequent generations and the ongoing struggle for civil rights in the United States. Through the stories of Aunt Phebe, Uncle Tom, and others, Matthews provides a powerful and poignant commentary on the legacy of slavery in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
