Summary
Charleston: a city of gallantry, glory, folly and pain, where democracy was nurtured and secession proclaimed. Perry begins with a bit of geography, economics, and socio-political history to help readers understand the history of the city. He then provides tours by historical period, as well as information on restaurants and hotels.
