New York, Pantheon. 1982. (ISBN: 0394722531). Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy. This pioneering study of the much-mythologized Southern belle offers the first serious look at the lives of white women and their harsh and restricted place in the slave society before the Civil War.
