Reviews
" The Confessions of Edward Isham , a cleverly conceived and adeptly executed essay collection, is a rich addition to our ever-growing understanding of that shadowy world of southern poor whites. The range of insights and meanings these scholars have teased out of the life of Edward Isham, known only through his brief biographical statement, makes this book extraordinary. It is an example of how much skillful historians can make of single lives and even single incidents, particularly given the dramatic and even chilling story they focus upon here."--John C. Inscoe, author of Mountain Masters: Slavery and the Sectional Crisis in Western North Carolina, "Takes the remarkable autobiography of a confessed murderer and examines it from a variety of perspectives. Each of the essays that follow the Isham autobiography contributes to the mosaic of poor white life in the South. The violence that characterized Isham's life is astonishing. Many previous scholars have commented on the violence in the Old South, but rarely has one been able to see it through the lens of a single, brutish life."--Jeffrey J. Crow, director of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History, "The Confessions of Edward Isham, a cleverly conceived and adeptly executed essay collection, is a rich addition to our ever-growing understanding of that shadowy world of southern poor whites.

Synopsis
This compelling collection of original documents and current scholarship sheds considerable light on the underside of the poor white experience in the antebellum South. In 1859, the Georgian Edward Isham, convicted in North Carolina of murdering a Piedmont farmer, dictated his life story to his court-appointed defense attorney. The autobiography left behind provides a rare look at the world of poor whites from the viewpoint of a member of this most elusive of the Old South's social groups. A selection of essays accompanying the autobiography examines the meaning of the document from a variety of perspectives: crime, frontier life, gender relations, labor, and the genre of nineteenth-century confessional literature., This compelling collection of original documents sheds considerable light on the underside of the poor white experience in the antebellum South. Essays accompanying the autobiography examine the document from a variety of perspectives: crime, frontier life, gender relations, labor, and the genre of nineteenth-century confessional literature.

- e***s (12)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaSeller was responsive, worked with me on the combined shipping confusion (it is either/or, and in my case, it was better to just take the automatic free shipping. My offer wasn’t bold enough and ended up costing me more to pay shipping than taking the free shipping). They fortunately let me just drop the offer and try again for automatic shipping. So in the end, the value was great, it was as described, and packaged well! Such a treat!
