About the Author

In his third postcard history about the state's Midlands, Howard Woody tells the county's history through over 200 images from the 1890s to the 1930s, showcasing activity in the public square, the mills, and village cultures that vanished with horse-and-buggies as the creation of Lake Murray and various highways altered the pace and shape of Newberry lifestyles. South Carolina Postcard Volume VI provides an insightful view into the county's past that will intrigue visitors and residents alike.
