In the book Hilliard examines the food supply, dietary habits, and agricultural choices of the antebellum American South, including Arkansas, L…

Comparison of pork production with estimated consumption, however, reveals that the level of subsistence varied markedly within the South. The major areas whose production was far below their needs were Louisiana and coastal South Carolina. Other areas with lesser shortages were some western Mississippi counties a…
