Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Edgefield County From the Earliest Settlement From his boyhood the author was a great reader and student Of history. Nothing pleased him better than to get hold of some good book telling of the deeds Of other times, and stories Of Marion and his men, and others of that heroic age. Unfor tunately, books that told the history of that period were too few; but he had Weems' Life of W ashington and Of Marion, and a book Of American Biographies published in 1830, all of which were well suited to cultivate a taste for history and make the reader long for more.
