Product Description

A Hard Fight for We: Women's Transition from Slavery to Freedom in South Carolina (Women, Gender, and Sexuality in American History)

Focusing on slave women on the rice plantations of low-country South Carolina, Leslie Schwalm offers a thoroughly researched account of their vital roles in antebellum plantation life and in the wartime collapse of slavery, and their efforts as freedwomen to recover from the impact of war while redefining life and labor in the postbellum period.
