Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each summer between 1790 and 1860, hundreds and eventually thousands of southern men and women left the diseases and boredom of their plantation homes and journeyed to the healthful and entertaining Virginia Springs. While some came in search of a cure, most traveled over the mountains to enjoy the fashionable society and participate in an array of social activities. At the springs, visitors, as well as their slaves, interacted with one another and engaged in behavior quite different from the picture presented by most historians. In the leisurely and pleasure-filled environment of the springs, plantation society's hierarchies became at once more relaxed and more contested; its rituals and rules sometimes changed and reformed; and its gender divisions often softened and blurred. In Ladies and Gentlemen on Display, Charlene Boyer Lewis argues that the Virginia Springs provided a theater of sorts, where contests for power between men and women, fashionables and evangelicals, blacks and whites, old and young, and even northerners and southerners played out—away from the traditional roles of the plantation. In their pursuit of health and pleasure, white southerners created a truly regional community at the springs. At this edge of the South, elite southern society shaped itself, defining what it meant to be a "Southerner" and redefining social roles and relations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Virginia Springs: Comprising an Account of All the Principal Mineral Springs of Virginia, With Remarks on the Nature and Medical Applicability of Each For more than thirty-five years I have given special attention to the investigation of the nature and medicinal applicability of mineral waters. During this time I have resided, throughout the watering season, at the White Sulphur Springs, where, in the character of physician to the springs, I have enjoyed ample opportunities of witnessing the various and modified effects of the water in almost every variety of disease and state of the system. Although my attention, during this time, has been particularly directed to the investigation of the character of the water of that spring, I have not neglected the other valuable waters of the country, nor failed personally to observe and appreciate their various peculiarities, and their relative and positive merits. While my position has enabled me to witness the virtues of mineral waters in diseases, it has, at the same time, fully satisfied me not only that their good effects are often lost, but that consequences highly injurious frequently result from their injudicious use.
