The book relates the Beaufort and Sea Islands story of treasure galleons on the Spanish Main, of pirates and privateers, of Indians and settlers; the story of French Huguenots and English aristocrats, Southern belles, satin slippers and sweet tea. The story of rice, cotton and indigo plantations, of slavery and Civil War, all set against the backdrop of the majestic mansions of Beaufort built in a time of Southern grace. Nature lovers will appreciate the journey along the Sea Island Parkway to Hunting Island State Park, which is featured in sparkling photographs of birds and dolphins, pristine beaches, lush forests and the solid old lighthouse.
