Thirteen programmes which took at figures in an American landscape. 7: The Plantation Owner
Andrew Gay is a Southern gentleman. He farms 5,000 acres of sugar on the banks of the Mississippi. His fine Louisiana plantation home was built by slaves before the Civil War. ANDREW GAY believes in keeping alive a ' Southern Style'. He fights today to make a living from sugar in a difficult market and to preserve the plantation intact for his children.
The plantation was started by Andrew Gay 's grandfather in 1858 and has been in the family ever since. But the black workers who live rent-free on the plantation are drifting away and the future for the St Louis Plantation and its Southern Style is threatened.
