A story that “has more to do with the antebellum Charleston than with the city of to-day. A great store of local history and tradition has been freely drawn upon in the preparation of this work, while the artist, Vernon Howe Bailey, has co-operated ably with the author in picturing the distinctive architectural features of South Carolina’s stately and dignified capital.” (R. of Rs.)
“It is in a fine spirit of reverence for the traditions of her home-land that Mrs. St. Julien Ravenel has written this volume.”
