Swallow Barn: Or A Sojourn In The Old Dominion is a novel written by John Pendleton Kennedy in 1860. The book is set in Virginia and revolves around the lives of the residents of a fictional plantation called Swallow Barn. The novel is divided into a series of sketches, each of which provides a glimpse into the lives of the characters who live on the plantation. The book is narrated by a character named Frank Meriwether, who is a guest at Swallow Barn. Through his observations and interactions with the residents, the reader is introduced to a variety of characters, including the plantation owner, his family, and the slaves who work on the plantation. The novel explores themes such as race, class, and the complexities of plantation life in the antebellum South. Kennedy portrays the slaves as complex individuals with their own hopes, dreams, and fears, rather than simply as property owned by the plantation owners. Swallow Barn: Or A Sojourn In The Old Dominion is considered to be an important work of Southern literature and provides a unique perspective on life in the South before the Civil War. The book has been praised for its vivid descriptions of the landscape and the daily life of the characters, as well as for its nuanced portrayal of the relationships between the different social classes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
