The engravings in this beautifully illustrated emblem book are attributed to Boetius à Bolswert (Boëce van Bolswert: ca. 1580-1633), who also is noted as the publisher (one illustration is signed "W. Simpson sculp."). The work went through numerous editions with engravings and woodcuts by various artists. The illustrations were also copied for use in other emblem works. The engravings, which include a biblical citation below the illustration, appear in fine dark impressions. A very nice copy of a very important work in its field.

    Summary

    John Patterson Green is the author of this account, based on his early years in New Bern, North Carolina and the few years he lived in South Carolina after the Civil War. The story opens in 1871 and describes small town life for African Americans in the South during Reconstruction. Much of the story is told as an account of a journey through the Carolinas, with descriptions of abandoned plantations, bygone camp meetings, towns with little life or commerce, all reviving memories of antebellum days. Interwoven with incidents on the journey is commentary on continuing discrimination, the clinging to antebellum customs and prejudices, abuse and corruption in politics and government, the rise of the Ku-Klux-Klan, and the effects of superstition. The narrative eventually turns into a closing essay on the status of poor whites, freedmen and rich white landowners and the causes behind social conditions in the South.
