| Description | At the age of nineteen Emily Wharton married Charles Sinkler and moved from her Philadelphia home to a cotton plantation in an isolated area in South Carolina. In monthly letters to her northern family she recorded keen observations about her adopted home, and in a receipt book she assembled a trusted collection of culinary and medicinal recipes reflecting her ties to both North and South. Together with an extensive biographical and historical introduction by Anne Sinkler Whaley LeClercq, these documents provide a flavourful record of plantation cooking, folk medicine, travel, and social life in the antebellum South. |
