Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from South Carolina, a Primer: An Article Prepared for the Encyclopedia Americana They belong to the Eocene and are composed of corals and gigantic oyster shells. Just above tide water they pass under the Ashley and Cooper marls, composed of many-cham bered shells (foraminifera), sometimes of so fine and compact a structure as to fit them for building purposes. Fragments broken from these marls and rounded by wave action form the phosphate rock of commerce. These nodules contain 55 to 61 per cent. Of phosphate of lime and have been quarried at the depth of one to six feet; they are also found on the bottom of the rivers, and on sea bottoms ex tending from North Carolina to Florida. The remains of the mastodon, elephant, tapir, horse, cow, and hog are found mingled with them, though the Europeans met none of these animals on their arrival, nor were any of the Indians acquainted with them. These marls afford excellent structural limes, and material for the manufacture of artificial cement. Green sands containing 4 to 6 per cent. Of potash in the form of glauconite also occur here.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic artistry celebrating the diverse lives and labors of hardscrabble Southerners In Working South, renowned watercolorist Mary Whyte captures in exquisite detail the essence of vanishing blue-collar professions from across ten states in the American South with sensitivity and reverence for her subjects. From the textile mill worker and tobacco farmer to the sponge diver and elevator operator, Whyte has sought out some of the last remnants of rural and industrial workforces declining or altogether lost through changes in our economy, environment, technology, and fashion. She shows us a shoeshine man, a hat maker, an oysterman, a shrimper, a ferryman, a funeral band, and others to document that these workers existed and in a bygone era were once ubiquitous across the region. "When a person works with little audience and few accolades, a truer portrait of character is revealed," explains Whyte in her introduction. As a genre painter with skills and intuition honed through years of practice and toil, she shares much in common with the dedication and character of her subjects. Her vibrant paintings are populated by men and women, young and old, black and white to document the range Southerners whose everyday labors go unheralded while keeping the South in business. By rendering these workers amid scenes of their rough-hewn lives, Whyte shares stories of the grace, strength, and dignity exemplified in these images of fading southern ways of life and livelihood. Working South includes a foreword by Martha Severens, curator of the Greenville County Museum of Art in Greenville, South Carolina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artist Mary Whyte's Down Bohicket Road includes two decades worth of watercolors—depicting a select group of Gullah women of Johns Island, South Carolina, and their stories. In 1991, following Whyte's recovery from a year of treatment for cancer, she and her husband moved to a small sea island near Charleston, seeking a new home where they could reinvent themselves far removed from the hectic pace of Philadelphia. In this remote corner of the South, Whyte first met Alfreda LaBoard and her devoted group of seniors who gathered weekly to make quilts, study the Bible, and socialize in a small rural church on Bohicket Road. Descendants of lowcountry slaves, these longtime residents of the island influenced Whyte's life and art in astonishing and unexpected ways. Whyte soon began a series of watercolors depicting these women, honoring their lives and their dedication to family and faith. As her friendships with these women grew, their matriarch Alfreda LaBoard claimed Whyte as her "vanilla sister." Alfreda's World, a collection of Whyte's detailed watercolors and poignant recollections of the women at the senior center, was published a decade later, drawing attention and support from the community to the small church on Bohicket Road. Down Bohicket Road continues the story of Whyte's relationship with these extraordinary women, following the passing of Alfreda, against the backdrop of the ongoing commercial development of Johns Island. For Whyte, the heart of this community remains in the simple homes clustered along Bohicket Road, in the island's winding tidal creeks, and in a small church where eighteen hardscrabble women gather in fellowship each week. In her book Whyte illustrates that both watercolors and friendships can be the unpredictable results of an abundance of blessings. As shared through touching words and vibrant paintings, Down Bohicket Road celebrates a unique way of coastal life and a remarkable friendship that transcends all barriers—even death itself—in praise of the unifying power of art. All royalties from the sale of this book benefit the Hebron Saint Francis Senior Center on Johns Island.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Deal Art in South Carolina captures the struggles of South Carolina artists to depict the typical "American scene" while working within the restraints and expectations of government patronage. As part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal response to the crippling economic effects of the Great Depression, artists were hired through the U.S. Treasury Department's Public Works of Art Project (PWAP) to produce high-quality public art to reflect and enhance the American way of life. In South Carolina the PWAP commissioned eighteen artists, including established figures such as Ann Taylor Nash, Margaret Moore Walker, Eliza Mims, and Faith Murry as well as those just beginning their careers. They produced easel paintings, sculptures, and murals across the state, including Stefan Hirsch's controversial "Justice as Protector and Avenger" mural in the Aiken Federal Courthouse. The more extensive Works Progress Administration Federal Art Project (WPA/FAP) followed, offering a work-relief program with a broader range of projects, including illustrating publications for the Federal Writers' Project, restoring Charleston's historic Dock Street Theatre, and developing art education classes. Through insightful text and compelling images, this illustrated survey of New Deal art projects in South Carolina showcases the efforts to bring art into the daily lives of hardscrabble Southerners during tough economic times. Issues of race, power, and memory dominate these works of art, mirroring the influence of those themes on all facets of Southern culture then and now.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholarly essays on the achievements of female artists working in and inspired by the American South Looking back at her lengthy career just four years before her death, modernist painter Nell Blaine said, "Art is central to my life. Not being able to make or see art would be a major deprivation." The Virginia native's creative path began early, and, during the course of her life, she overcame significant barriers in her quest to make and even see art, including serious vision problems, polio, and paralysis. And then there was her gender. In 1957 Blaine was hailed by Life magazine as someone to watch, profiled alongside four other emerging painters whom the journalist praised "not as notable women artists but as notable artists who happen to be women." In Central to Their Lives, twenty-six noted art historians offer scholarly insight into the achievements of female artists working in and inspired by the American South. Spanning the decades between the late 1890s and early 1960s, this volume examines the complex challenges these artists faced in a traditionally conservative region during a period in which women's social, cultural, and political roles were being redefined and reinterpreted. The presentation—and its companion exhibition—features artists from all of the Southern states, including Dusti Bongé, Anne Goldthwaite, Anna Hyatt Huntington, Ida Kohlmeyer, Loïs Mailou Jones, Alma Thomas, and Helen Turner. These essays examine how the variables of historical gender norms, educational barriers, race, regionalism, sisterhood, suffrage, and modernism mitigated and motivated these women who were seeking expression on canvas or in clay. Whether working from studio space, in spare rooms at home, or on the world stage, these artists made remarkable contributions to the art world while fostering future generations of artists through instruction, incorporating new aesthetics into the fine arts, and challenging the status quo. Sylvia Yount, the Lawrence A. Fleischman Curator in Charge of the American Wing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, provides a foreword to the volume. Contributors: Sara C.
