Story
In Gullah Spirituals musicologist Eric Crawford traces Gullah Geechee songs from their beginnings in West Africa to their height as songs for social change and Black identity in the 20th-century American South. While much has been done to study, preserve, and interpret Gullah culture in the Low Country and sea islands of South Carolina and Georgia, some traditions like the shouting and rowing songs have been all but forgotten.

Story
On an August night in 1893, the deadliest hurricane in South Carolina history struck the Lowcountry, killing thousands—almost all African American. But the devastating storm is only the beginning of this story. The hurricane's long effects intermingled with ongoing processes of economic downturn, racial oppression, resistance, and environmental change. In the Lowcountry, the political, economic, and social conditions of Jim Crow were inextricable from its environmental dimensions.

Story
No sooner had the aerial reconnaissance photographs of the Spratly Islands in the South China Sea been analyzed than the evidence of China's island-building activities was forwarded to the Pentagon and the White House. Those satellite images revealed that the Chinese military was turning reefs and atolls into solid ground supporting airfields, ports, helipads and barracks. The discovery of new Chinese military staging areas adjacent to the earth's busiest shipping lanes for oil and natural gas was followed within weeks by China's announcement that they would purchase all of Russia's surplus...

Story
Could an entire family for generations have been cursed? Can a house really be haunted? HOUSE OF TRAGEDY by award-winning author and journalist Ken H. Fortenberry tackles and attempts to separate fact from fiction in this engaging and well-researched book about the historic, deadly, and maybe even haunted Seaside Plantation on Edisto Island, South Carolina, where John McConkey was brutally murdered in 1915. McConkey wasn't the first of his family to die at Seaside. It is also where one of his sisters burned to death, another may have committed suicide, and a brother also mysteriously died. ...

Story
New islands are being built at an unprecedented rate, whether for tourism or territorial ambition, while many islands are disappearing or fragmenting because of rising sea levels. It is a strange planetary spectacle, creating an ever-changing map that even Google Earth struggles to keep pace with. In The Age of Islands, explorer and geographer Alastair Bonnett takes the listener on a compelling and thought-provoking tour of the world's newest, most fragile and beautiful islands and reveals what, he argues, is one of the great dramas of our time.

Sure it means leaving Jersey behind and going to the Carolinas, where everything is slow and meandering, but what else’s a new divorcee to do? A break-in at the bookstore not long after Annie arrives in town is just one of the mysterious events that follows. Finding out about a father she knew nothing about, a family history that belongs in fiction, and a hunky private ...

It goes without saying that Bogart’s not happy about the roommate sitch. Of course, neither is Sam, and especially not Melanie. But hey, she’s got Mildred, and it seems she’s the only one who doesn’t hate Annie’s newly found brother. Prompted by curiosity—it killed the cat, right? Not humans?—Annie and Tyler submit their saliva for some DNA testing. They have ...
