About this title

From the Inside Flap:

A memoir of a nineteenth-century champion for faith and community in South Carolina

Review:

This crucial memoir describes important events and people often ignored in histories of Reconstruction in the South. During a period of political battles and violent confrontations, Rev. Porter work tirelessly to build a society of educated people who could respect each other even when they disagreed. His vision of a community that could raise itself economically and spiritually was far ahead of his time, and exactly what the South needed--and still does.
Faye Jensen, executive director, South Carolina Historical Society
