The Santee Delta Waters & Voices - Paperback

by Bob Raynor (Author)

Every day people drive across the Santee Delta, unaware of the bountiful natural

resources and complex history surrounding them. Bob Raynor paints a portrait of the

fertile grounds that fostered the development of tidal rice culture with an enslaved

labor force to carry out brutal and often fatal work.

Raynor utilizes his personal investigations on the water and on foot to highlight

the Delta's crucial role in the environmental and economic development of South

Carolina. The Santee Delta: Waters and Voices takes an in-depth exploration of this

area through a narrative, including the storytelling of historical events and Raynor's

experiences in this fascinating Lowcountry world.
