Description: Preserving Charleston's Past, Shaping Its Future: The Life and Times of Susan Pringle Frost By Sidney Bland Published: University of South Carolina Press, 1999. 171 pp. Softcover in original binding. Not Ex-Lib. SCARCE title.One of the most remarkable women born in the Reconstruction South, Susan Pringle Frost was an outspoken champion of a host of important causes, including women's rights, a more active and accountable local government, and better treatment of African Americans. In his biography of this dynamic Charlestonian, Sidney Bland enumerates Frost's many accomplishments and chronicles what he considers to be her greatest achievement-spearheading a historic preservation movement in Charleston that became the model for preservationists throughout the country. A finalist for the South Carolina Historical Society's best book of the year in South Carolina history, Preserving Charleston's Past, Shaping Its Future illuminates the life of a pioneer in historic preservation and a feminist whose activism helped save Charleston's old architecture and generated a wider preservation movement. I've done my best to describe the book, but if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to send me an e-mail.
