Here is the link to my Amazon author's site. The book can also be ordered directly from me. Please email me should this interest you: birdseyeviewspublications@gmail.com. (Note: my price at $60 plus $7.50 for shipping is lower than Amazon's)
In August, the Orangeburg Times and Democrat published an excellent article about my new book. Check it out here.
This piece I wrote earlier this year details the makeup of "The Churchyards of Charleston" as does this post listing 10 of my gravesites in the book.
Upon delivery, I carefully opened one box and inspected my long-awaited book. It has been worth the wait! It looks (and reads) great!
Four years in the works, "Stories from the Underground: The Churchyards of Charleston" examines the Holy City's rich, interesting and diverse history through the prism of its religious burial grounds.
The book's main focus is the 13 historic downtown churches, one synagogue, and their respective graveyards and cemeteries.
At the end of the book, I also cover the recently designated Charleston Cemetery Historic District located near Magnolia Cemetery (about which I have written two previous books- see information about those books on this site).
My first book signing is tomorrow (Saturday, Oct. 8) in my neighborhood in North Charleston. A second one is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 6 at Second Presbyterian Church at 342 Meeting St.(featured in the book). Other events are in the works.
I am excited to release my book in time for the upcoming holiday season. It will make a nice gift, don't you think?
Palmetto Publishing in North Charleston (Rivers Avenue) did a great job and was nice to work with. I encourage any other authors in the Charleston area or beyond to contact this company!
