About the Author

In 1891, Ambrose Gonzales (1857-1926) and his brother Narcisco founded what remains South Carolina's largest newspaper, ""The State."" The son of a father who was a Cuban revolutionary leader, and a mother who was the daughter of a South Carolina state senator and wealthy rice plantation owner, Ambrose grew up speaking the Gullah language with the slaves and freedmen who worked on the family's rice plantations. He is best remembered for his stories based on the Gullah dialect.
