About me

Gender Male
Location South Carolina, United States
Introduction I started this blog as part of my research to understand the essentials of living in the colonial period in the Southern Backcountry. I am especially interested in food and its production and use in this region among all groups: Native American, African, and European. I am going to conduct historical and hands-on research and write on topics I want to understand better in order to interpret this area to others in living history demonstrations & reenactments. I have always been interested in history. I am currently a student in the Museum Management Certificate Program at the University of South Carolina. I have my BA in history from Clemson University and my MA in history from Winthrop University. My thesis topic for my MA was Governor James Glen and his relations with the Cherokee Indians.
Interests South Carolina Backcountry, Colonial South, American Frontier, Lewis and Clark, History of Southern Food
