The Light of Other Days cover
The Light of Other Days

by Caroline Couper Lovell

Published in association with the Colonial Dames of Georgia

Foreword by Hugh Stiles Golson
Introduced by LeeAnn Whites

The late Caroline Couper Lovell wrote this memoir in the late 1920s and early 1930s. The Light of Other Days covers her childhood in Savannah and Etowah Cliffs, Georgia during the 1860s and 1870s, terminating with her young marriage. Lovell's fascnating childhood, though dark in many ways, seems to have occurred in a house of aging women and young siblings and cousins with a backdrop of gardens, rivers, books, and paintings. But the narrative also has a sharp edge to it and refuses to submit to ancestor worship.
