Backroads of South Carolina Your Guide to South Carolina's Most Scenic Backroad Adventures

South Carolina's lovely backroads beckon you to explore the state's hidden treasures, from the mist-laden majesty of the Blue Ridge Mountains and lush rolling farmlands of the Piedmont, to the moss-draped oaks and wildlife-filled salt marshes of the Low Country. In Backroads of South Carolina,authors Paul M. Franklin and Nancy Mikulalead you on a journey that showcases all of the Palmetto State's charm. You'll follow quiet country byways that lead to timeless historic towns and scores of little-known attractions, like the world's smallest police station, the lovely cliff-top chapel of Pretty Place, and the magnificent sun-dappled cypress swamps of Francis Beidler Forest. In twenty-four driving tours-complete with detailed route directions and maps-you'll visit pristine, surf-tossed ocean beaches; tidal wetlands alive with thousands of birds; and postcard-pretty southern towns filled with galleries, shops, and dazzling gardens. Over three centuries of South Carolina's history comes alive in beautifully restored antebellum plantations, towns that trace the growth of a young America, and fields where great battles shaped the history of our country.Franklin, Paul M. is the author of 'Backroads of South Carolina Your Guide to South Carolina's Most Scenic Backroad Adventures' with ISBN 9780760326404 and ISBN 0760326401.
