Great fortunes were once made on tiny Edisto Island, as
nineteenth-century planters and their families farmed indigo and
cotton. Although the ancient, oak-shaded path to Edisto is now a
highway, the trees overhead remain draped with lush Spanish moss,
luring travelers to another era. Proud of their preservation of the
island, residents here strive to
maintain a lifestyle that is close to nature and
removed from the hustle and bustle of city life. This remarkable
new photographic history features over 200 vintage images, many
never before seen by the public. With photographs of the founding
planters and their families, homes, landscapes and beach views, and
intimate views of everyday life on Edisto plantations, this book
gives us a glimpse of what the aisland experiencea was like through
the years.
