[Davis] Hermann, Janet Sharp, JOSEPH E. DAVIS: Pioneer Patriarch. University Press of Mississippi, 1991. NEW copy. Hardcover with dust jacket, still in shrinkwrap. Index. 196 pages. "At the height of Davis's career, his father died; Davis, the unmarried eldest son, gave up his career to assume responsibility for his family, including his brother, 16-year-old Jefferson Davis, future president of the Confederacy. Hermann relates in chronological sequence the subsequent activities of Joseph Davis, enlightened slaveholder at Hurricane, friend to the slave Ben Montgomery, dedicated husband to his frail wife Eliza, and benefactor to his three illegitimate daughters. The author explains Davis's moderate views on slavery, his struggle to hold the family together during the war, and his legal fightto regain Hurricane during Reconstruction. This book is an important social history that illustrates the trials and tribulations of a contemporary southern family during the war." OUT OF PRINT.
