Description
NEW SERIES ! More Tales from Brookgreen!
Battling Hurricanes along the South Carolina coast near Myrtle Beach
. . . two tales of joy, tragedy, and survival.
The Stories:
~ Three generations of Flagg family members struggle desperately against a historic hurricane's fury at Huntington Beach in the suspenseful tale, "The Flagg Flood."
~ A family faces two major Murrells Inlet storms with strength and courage in the charming reminiscence, "Every Sixty Years."
This brief collection of stories (11,000 words, 6 illustrations, 82 pages in paperback) comes from Lynn Michelsohn's second series of Lowcountry stories, More Tales from Brookgreen.
The Series:
Brookgreen Gardens storytellers share more history and folklore from Murrell Inlet's popular tourist attraction near Myrtle Beach in the series, More Tales from Brookgreen--Folklore, Ghost Stories, and Gullah Folktales of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
The Storytellers:
Two "sixty-ish" Southern ladies serving as Hostesses at Brookgreen Gardens told these stories of the South Carolina Lowcountry to visitors during the middle of the Twentieth Century. Now, Lynn Michelsohn recounts them to a wider audience.
The Setting:
Brookgreen Gardens, a sculpture garden and wildlife preserve created in the 1930s by Archer and Anna Hyatt Huntington from four historic Lowcountry rice plantations rich with folklore, displays American sculpture along its shaded pathways winding through ancient live oaks draped with Spanish moss.
