Summary:

This collection, from Thomas D. Clark's Travels in the Old South, covers the years 1737-1896. Clark, in the editor's preface to Volume I, remarks, "Almost all historians who have tried to discover the past as it actually was or to gain a feeling of being at home in the precise contemporary scene, have used travel accounts for sources." For students of the history of individual Southern states, agriculture and industry, social life and customs, folklore and any other aspect of southern tradition, this is an indispensable research tool.
