Pioneers of the Old South (Illustrated)

Part of the successful Chronicle series, Mary Johnston's 1918 narrative tackles the formation of the southern British colonies in what would later be the United States. She gives a detailed account of the establishment of the founding of Maryland, the Carolinas, Georgia, and in particular: Virginia. Mary Johnston was a well-known suffragette, and her analysis of gender issues during the peak of her political activity, just two years before women won the right to vote.
