This third edition of A South Carolina Chronology offers a
year-by-year chronology of landmark dates and events in South
Carolina's recorded history. Unique to this volume are nearly
thirty additional years of notable events and important updates to
material covered in earlier editions. Historians Walter Edgar, J.
Brent Morris, and C. James Taylor expand previously chronicled
periods using a more contemporary view of race, gender, and other
social issues, adding measurably to South Carolina's history. While
the previous edition referenced precontact South Carolina in a
brief introduction, this edition begins with the chapter ""Peopling
the Continent (17,200 BCE-1669)."" It acknowledges the extent to
which the lands where Europeans began arriving in the fifteenth
century had long been inhabited by indigenous people who were
members of complex societies and sociopolitical networks. An
easy-to-use inventory of the people, politics, laws, economics,
wars, protests, storms, and cultural events that have had a major
influence on South Carolina and its inhabitants, this latest
edition reflects a more complete picture of the state's past. From
the earliest-known migrants to the increasingly complex global
society of the early twenty-first century, A South Carolina
Chronology offers a solid foundation for understanding the Palmetto
State's past.
