With the Civil War literally exploding all around, many of these homes were occupied either by Confederate or Union troops. Today, there are more than thirty plantations open to the public in South Carolina. Plantations and Historic Homes of South Carolina takes the reader on the tours and talks to the guides to dig even further if there is more to discover. If only the walls could talk, the stories we might hear!<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Southern plantations are an endless source of fascination. That's no surprise since these palatial homes are rich in history, representing a pivotal time in U.S. history that truly is "gone with the wind." With the Civil War literally exploding all around, many of these homes were occupied either by Confederate or Union troops. There are still more than 30 plantations open to the public in South Carolina today. Some have been restored, others undergoing that process. If only the walls could talk, the stories we might hear! That's what we hope to bring into this book on The Plantations of South Carolina. We'll take the tours and talk to the guides and dig even further if there is more to discover. We hope that travelers will be enlightened before they travel to South Carolina, their visits will thus be enriched, and that residents will equally love exploring this deep history of their state.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Jai Williams is a writer as well as travel and culinary photographer.
