In This Memoir Cornelia Jones Pond Gives An Eyewitness Account Of How The Privileged Life Of The Southern Slaveholding Class Was Destroyed By A Whirlwind Of Change.Pond'S Narrative Begins In 1834, When She Was Born To One Of The Old South'S Wealthiest Plantation Families. It Ends In 1875, When She Was A Fortyoneyearold Minister'S Wife And The Mother Of Four Daughters, Trying To Make Her Way In The Drastically Changed Postcivil War South. She Began Dictating Her Memoir To Her Daughter Anne In 1899, When She Was Sixtyfive Years Old, And The Handwritten Manuscript Eventually Found Its Way To The Midway Church Museum. This Is The First Unabridged Edition Of Pond'S Memoir, And It Includes Notes, Genealogy, And An Extensive Introduction By Lucinda H.
