Although the Civil War began in South Carolina; most of the fighting during the war took place in other theaters. Despite the 587-day bombardment of Charleston and the burning of the capital city of Columbia; some of the Palmetto State's greatest efforts centered around the care of the sick and wounded. With a penchant for preservation; many of the structures that served as hospitals still stand today. This book takes readers on a tour through history as it explores the cities; towns; and villages of South Carolina in search of the houses; churches; hotels; stores; college buildings; town halls and many other edifices that served as hospitals during the war. Packed with pictures both period and present-day; readers can locate and visit many of the sites today.
