Summary
"The author presents a case study of a single plantation, Rose Hill, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, the home of Thomas Marsh Forman (1758-1845) and his wife, Martha Ogle Forman (1788-1864). The author uses Martha Forman's diary, updated daily from her marriage day in 1814 until after the death of her husband, as her primary source of information about the details of life at Rose Hill"--, Provided by publisher
