An excellent way to see Charleston, through pictures,
By A Customer
This review is from: Charleston Come Hell or High Water: A History in Photographs (Paperback)
An exciting way to visit the City of Charleston. A city that has survived five major fires, earthquakes, tornadors, cyclones, hurricanes and the 587 day siege of Charleston. Pictures show this proud old lady's struggle to survive during the last 140 years. Wonderful text by Alice Levkoff gives amazing accounts of what was and is Charleston. A pictorial history that shows Charleston is not a sleepy old Southern city.

This review is from: Charleston Come Hell or High Water: A History in Photographs (Paperback)
Intending just to thumb through the book, I found I could not put it down. Having just returned from a vacation to Myrtle Beach (and visiting Charleston and Ft. Sumter), I was pleasantly surprised to recognize so many of the structures in the photographs. In addition, the captions were entertaining and provided a further glimpse into the lives of those in the photographs. Pictures included people, structures and scenes from all walks of life--high society and economically disadvantaged. Pre-civil war daguerrotypes start off this photographic history book. I wish I had taken this book with me to visit Charleston!
