Back of the Big House: The Architecture of Plantation Slavery New edition
John Michael Vlach
Behind the “Big Houses” of the antebellum South existed a different world, socially and architecturally, where slaves lived and worked. John Michael Vlach explores the structures and spaces that formed the slaves' environment. Through photographs and the words of former slaves, he portrays the plantation landscape from the slaves' own point of view.
