Insightful coverage of key Colonial- and Revolutionary War-era
historic sites throughout the Southern states.
Longtime travel authors Patricia and Robert Foulke traveled
throughout Virginia, Kentucky, Washington, D.C., North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Mississippi to write this
engaging, detailed guide that will appeal to history buffs and
armchair travelers alike. From the earliest exploration of the
South through the Colonial era, the French and Indian War and the
Revolutionary War, up through the aftermath of the War of 1812, the
authors delve into the lives of the early settlers struggling to
survive in an alien wilderness, their successors who lent their
expertise to fashion a new political system, and those who later
fought and died to preserve their independence.
A wealth of historical detail is provided to establish context for
the times, along with timelines, photographs, and insightful
descriptions of the sites and museums included. Nearby lodging and
restaurants--all with links to the past--round out this fine
resource. 40 black & white photographs, 20 maps.
