Walter Edgar's Journal

Exploring "South Carolina from A to Z"

Clayton "Peg Leg Bates" statue, Ft Inn, SC (Mike Burton / Flickr) This week we going to explore South Carolina from A to Z. That’s the title of our sister podcast and the title tells you all you need to know about what that podcast does: Letter by letter Walter goes through the South Carolina Encyclopedia, giving you bite-sized takes on the history of the Palmetto State. The challenge he faces for each episode is that it is only one minute long - 145 to 149 words of text to cover the topic. On today's Journal  Walter and Alfred are taking five topics from past editions of South Carolina from A to Z and are discussing each at lenght, giving some of these people and events from our state's history room to "breathe."
