The Way It Was In Charleston, S.C.: Recollections of a Southern Lady 1877-1975

Bound in handsome bonded leather and trimmed in goldleaf, The Way It Was is the first in the Evening Post Book's Charleston Reader Series. The on-going series will offer snapshots of local history and each volume will be numbered.

This first book in the series also includes Blair Halford's images of Ashley Hall, where Author Laura Witte and her five sisters grew up, and a summary history of the school by Dr. Ileana Strauch, an Ashley Hall School alumna. As with the book's previous edition, it contains a superb forward by the late News and Courier columnist "Lord Ashley Cooper," Frank Gilbreth.
