Summary: Revisionist History
Comment: This is an amazing example of what I've only heard about heretofore: The feminist attribution of motives that probably didn't even enter the minds of the plantation ladies Ms. Clinton has written about. Her research sample is small and perhaps overused, but quite interesting when letters are included in the text, and therefore there is some worth to the work. Often foolish, this book says more about the author's politics than the lives of plantation mistresses.

Summary: overall good book
Comment: I browsed through it to get to parts that were the most interesting but overall the book was good. nice read for anyone interested in plantation life.
Rating: 4
Summary: honest review
Comment: The Plantation Mistress by Catherine Clinton was an overall good book, and I recommend it for anyone interested in the lives of women in the Old South. I read it for a school project, however it was actually interesting. Some parts were boring, andthe author went into too much detail about some aspects of the life of a southern women, but other parts were really interesting. You will finish the book with a greater appreciation for women's status today, and a better understanding of women's role during the period 1780-1835. AN enjoyable read considering its a history book!!
