"In the sticky heat of a South Carolina Lowcountry summer, horizons are swallowed by humidity. The curves of creeks and heavy skies blend and fade in ethereal ascension. Distances distort and textures soften in air too thick to breathe. But on a clear night, under a full moon at high tide, the water shimmers, a sideways-slipping sea. Pinch yourself to stay awake, for dreams can harbor no more liquid a mystery than the Lowcountry. Poetry can pattern no more regular a meter, song no more flowing a rhythm. But photography can conjure up the essence of a place, the shifting layers of light, the fleeting presence of its past, and transfer its grace. It began long ago, this softly shared and gentle grace. Native peoples left shell-ring maps to the natural treasures of the Lowcountry and rhythmic names for later tongues to try: Ashepoo, Combahee and Yemassee. Enslaved Africans brought with them and passed down arts like sweetgrass basket weaving and soulful song. Plantation owners, too, bequeathed a beauty to the Lowcountry - live oaks line the avenues to antebellum mansions. Traditions mingled and adapted. What is left is often the least tangible and most tenuous of tenders. Wade into the work of Gary Geboy and the words of Teresa Bruce through the pages of Transfer of Grace. Save a place for the Lowcountry in your soul." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Transfer of Grace is one of the most beautiful meditations on the South Carolina Lowcountry that has ever come my way. It feels delicate and sacramental in nature - a love poem to the salt marshes, bays and rivers that define this extraordinary place. The photographs are priceless and the prose is surpassingly fine." - Pat Conroy, author. "Oh, the beauty of the land and water! We are compelled not only to stand in awe of the Lowcountry's unique presence, but also to work to preserve it. This book is a feast for the eyes and food for the soul!" - Lois Battle, author. "The photography and words that make up Transfer of Grace reflect a rare and gifted sensitivity to the Southern soul in synchrony with nature." - Jonathan Green, artist. "Transfer of Grace captures the thickness of the air; you can almost feel the humidity rising in the soft glow. It is bittersweet. Sadly, the places captured in this exquisite book are fast disappearing. The text carries the ache of that loss." - Gerardine Wurzburg, Academy Award-winning documentarian. Signed by Author(s).
