Documents on Edisto Island History

Compiled & Edited by Charles Spencer

  This compilation of documents is published as a companion to Charles Spencer's two volume history of the island (Edisto Island, 1663 to 1860: Wild Eden to Cotton Aristocracy and Edisto Island, 1861 to 2006: Ruin, Recovery and Rebirth).  The originals of most of these documents are available to the public in collections noted by the compiler, and some have been published before; others are published here for the first time.

Due to rising costs to have this produced, we have had to substantially increase the price, we do apologize, but we are now able to re-stock.
