Description
The Master's House: A Tale of Southern Life is a novel written by Logan, first published in 1854. The story is set in the American South during the mid-19th century and follows the lives of two families, one white and one black, who are intertwined through their relationships with the master of the plantation.The novel explores the complex dynamics of race, class, and power in the antebellum South, as well as the moral and ethical dilemmas faced by those caught up in the system of slavery. The white family, the Harringtons, are the owners of the plantation and rely on the labor of their slaves to maintain their way of life. The black family, the Johnsons, are slaves on the plantation and are subject to the whims of their owners.The story is told from multiple perspectives, including those of the Harringtons, the Johnsons, and other characters who inhabit the world of the plantation. Through their experiences, the novel offers a nuanced portrayal of the complexities of slavery and the ways in which it impacted both slaveholders and slaves.Ultimately, The Master's House is a powerful and thought-provoking work that explores the legacy of slavery in America and the enduring impact it has had on the country's social and cultural fabric.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
