Born in 1900 and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, Amelia Mellichamp's family would journey by train to spend summers with relatives in rural Mars Bluff, South Carolina. After World War One she married Walter Gregg Wallace, a childhood friend returned from France, and raised a family as a farmer's wife.In these pages, Amelia recalls some of the people and the places around the Mars Bluff community, giving us a glimpse into how lives were lived -- lives steeped in history while coming to grips with changes that gradually ended the era of horse and buggy travel down ageless farm roads between distant country homes.Amelia touches on a variety of topics, including plantation life, emancipation, reconstruction, World War I, the Great Depression, country medicine, spiritual life, rural education, country stores, Francis Marion College, railroads, Thurgood Marshall, and the atomic bomb.The text is illuminated with maps, drawings, and dozens of photographs of the people and the places central to the memoir.

For a town that once consisted of nothing more than a shed, a pine forest and a name, Florence, South Carolina, boasts a surprisingly rich history. From the ten foot bomb dropped on a Mars Bluff farm by apologetic Air Force pilots to a record-breaking seventeen-inch snowfall, this Pee Dee hub has seen plenty of extraordinary events and famous characters. Here, William Howard Taft enjoyed pine bark stew and Herbert Hoover visited Mikado Milliea world champion cow known for her prolific milk-making. Longtime journalist Thom Anderson lovingly recalls these hometown tales collected over thirty years of writing columns for the Morning News.

Florence occupies a huge space in American history, and that past left a lot of lingering spirits. A Native American "trickster" meanders the local swamps. In Mars Bluff, a ghostly guide offers tours of a beloved plantation. A dedicated worker in the former Jamestown area still haunts a dilapidated tobacco barn. At an abandoned boardinghouse, a spectral couple searches for a lost trinket. Author H.P. Bradley details these stories and more of the historic hauntings in the Magic City.

The reissue of The South Carolina Rice Plantation as Revealed in the Papers of Robert F.W. Allston makes available for a new generation of readers a firsthand look at one of South Carolinas most influential antebellum dynasties and the institutions of slavery and plantation agriculture upon which it was built. Often cited by historians, Robert F.W. Allstons letters, speeches, receipts, and ledger entries chronicle both the heyday of the rice industry and its precipitate crash during the Civil War. As Daniel C. Littlefield underscores in his introduction to the new edition, these papers are significant not only because of Allstons position at the apex of planter society but also because his views represented those of the rice planter elite.

This two-volume encyclopedia is the first to focus on the material life of slaves. Although many encyclopedias discuss slavery, enslaved blacks, and African American life and culture, none focus on the material world of slaves, such as what they saw; touched; heard; ate, drank, and smoked; wore; worked with and in; used, cultivated, crafted, played, and played with; and slept on. The two-volume World of a Slave: Encyclopedia of the Material Life of Slaves in the United States is a landmark work in this important new field of study. Recognizing that a full understanding of the complexity of American slavery and its legacy requires an understanding of the material culture of slavery, the encyclopedia includes entries on almost every aspect of that material culture, beginning in the 17th century and extending through the Civil War. Readers will find information on animals, documents, economy, education and literacy, food and drink, home, music, personal items, places, religion, rites of passage, slavery, structures, and work. There are also introductory essays on literacy and oral culture and on music and dance.
