The Book

Foreword by Billy Keyserling, Mayor of Beaufort

What promises to be very intriguing and compelling reading, Beaufort Through the Ages introduces fifty provocative Beaufortonians between the ages of forty and one hundred two years old guiding the thread and weaving a breathtakingly beautiful Lowcountry tapestry of enduring commonalities. While these fifty may disagree about rapid growth and the perception of the constancy of  change, they stand together in their fierce allegiance and unconditional love for this charming Lowcountry coastal town. Down-home folks speaking with extraordinary resolve, they are all wrought with love for Beaufort.

Testimonials

“Gloria,
Let me thank you so very much for your book. It is a wonderful addition to Beaufort’s history and lore, written by people who love this place because of the history and the beauty. But, we must never forget how fragile the memory of history is, nor how fragile is the natural environment that makes Beaufort different, special and better than other places. We all have a responsibility to Beaufort. You have reminded us of this.”

George Trask, The Beaufort Tribune
