Turn Backward O Time In Your Flight
Chalmers S Murray
South Carolina writer Chalmers Swinton Murray (1894 - 1975) grew up on Edisto Island, studied at The Citadel, and was known for his non-fiction and fiction books and stories about his home state. This little book of the author's memories from his childhood and teen years depicts life on Edisto, a rural barrier island, at the turn of the 20th century. Modes of transportation from horse, buggy and steamship, to railroad, to the first automobiles carry him to and from his home, to which he would return throughout his life. He shares personal reflections on school, church and daily life, colorful tales of eccentric relatives and friends, and adventures in the mysterious marshes and forests. He learned much from his African-American neighbors, a theme that figures often in this and other of his writings. This memoir offers a fascinating glimpse of former times under the old oaks of the Lowcountry, where the past is as palpable as the scent of the salt marsh.
