| Publisher Description: Bordering the northwestern side of South Carolina's Lake Murray and encompassing portions of both the Dutch Fork community and the Sumter National Forest, Newberry County possesses a rich agrarian history. While it suffered greatly during the changes of the previous century, it has been rebuilt continually and today is home to Newberry College and the Newberry Opera House, among other historic localities. |
Contributor Bio(s): Woody, Howard: - In his third postcard history about the state's Midlands, Howard Woody tells the county's history through over 200 images from the 1890s to the 1930s, showcasing activity in the public square, the mills, and village cultures that vanished with horse-and-buggies as the creation of Lake Murray and various highways altered the pace and shape of Newberry lifestyles. South Carolina Postcard Volume VI provides an insightful view into the county's past that will intrigue visitors and residents alike. |
