    About this ebook

    Since the colonization of South Carolina in 1670, Irish people have been instrumental in shaping the state's history. These humble Irish immigrants, overcoming a legacy of prejudice, soon became the heroes of Palmetto culture. The Palmetto State has a truly "lucky" past--Sullivan's Island is named after the Revolutionary War hero Captain Florence O'Sullivan, and two Irishmen signed the Declaration of Independence on behalf of South Carolina. Arthur Mitchell, distinguished professor and Irish historian, recounts the trials and triumphs of the Irish and their kin in South Carolina.

      Bending the Arc

      With all the hoopla this year over Canada 150, and amid the energies and dollars directed at celebrating our national story, I have been thinking about local history and why it matters. Our readers are deeply engaged in research about their families.
