Frederick Law Olmsted was a journalist and landscape architect who is best known for designing Central Park in New York City. In the years before the Civil War, he also traveled extensively throughout the southern United States, and his observations on the region's culture, economy, and social structure were published in a series of popular books. Journeys and Explorations in the Cotton Kingdom is a comprehensive collection of Olmsted's travel writing from this period. His detailed accounts of the lives of slaves and slaveholders in the antebellum south are particularly compelling and informative. This edition of the book includes a new introduction by a leading Olmsted scholar.
