- A Drama In Four Acts (1898)

Bag om Alabama

Alabama: A Drama In Four Acts is a play written by Augustus Thomas and first published in 1898. The play is set in Alabama during the Reconstruction era and tells the story of two families, one white and one black, who are forced to confront their differences and prejudices in the aftermath of the Civil War. The white family, the Calhouns, are struggling to hold onto their plantation and way of life, while the black family, the Johnsons, are trying to establish themselves as free citizens in a society that is still deeply divided by race. The play explores themes of race, class, and identity, and features a cast of complex and well-drawn characters, including a former slave who has become a successful businessman, a white Confederate veteran struggling with guilt and regret, and a young black woman who dreams of a better life for herself and her family. With its powerful themes and memorable characters, Alabama: A Drama In Four Acts remains a classic of American theater and an important work of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
