RELICS OF THE COASTAL EMPIRE
THE CIVIL WAR YEARS
A study of the artifacts of coastal Georgia and the South Carolina Lowcountry.
A hard covered book with over 1,000 full color photographs of excavated Civil War artifacts on 300 pages!
This book came hot off the press in May 2013 after over ten years of research and collecting photos to document the Civil War history of coastal Georgia and South Carolina from Charleston S.C. down to Brunswick, GA. Not only is it a great reference book for identifying artifacts for collectors and historians, but it is a historical reference for Civil War activity for this area know as the Coastal Empire.
The book doesn't just cover Civil War relics, but artifacts from plantations, life in the city and the struggle all endured during this period of American history. From period jewelry, tools & hardware, coinage, bottles; to the variety of artifacts found in military encampments, this book offers a pictorial history of life on the coast. Also included is a section on presentation weapons and a poem written one month after the Battle of Fredericksburg about Savannah's General Lafayette McLaws.
RELICS OF THE COASTAL EMPIRE was done by the Coastal Empire History Hunters who have displayed artifacts for show, schools and living history programs for years. It is our desire to permanently document our research and preservation efforts in this book and share our love of history.
