From the publisher: "This volume contains both vivid images of Rock Hill's past and a selection of personal histories from a wide variety of citizens, from its Catawba roots to its African-American heritage. Throughout, you will be reminded of a place and time becoming increasingly foreign to today's generations, when lazy Saturday afternoons were spent playing fox and hounds, hop scotch, and gloveless baseball, when doors, both car and home, were left unlocked, and when the week was measured by the social calendar's local parties and dances. Besides these romantic scenes of small-town life, Rock Hill contains compelling stories detailing the devastation of storms, the tense emotions and sacrifices surrounding homefront Rock Hill during wartimes, the excitement of early businesses moving into the area, and the bidding struggle and birth of the city's proudest educational achievement, Winthrop University."

Phone book for Rock Hill and surrounding area including white and yellow pages. Chief Gilbert Blue and young Catawba dancer on the cover.

From the introduction: "It is the purpose of the biographical sketches of the last twenty-one Governors of South Carolina appearing herewith in sequence to furnish the reader with information concerning each of the Governors which does not seem to be available elsewhere. Not all the history books of the State come down the line in chronological order with a list of the Governors for the last sixty-three years and with a sketch and picture of each. It was the good fortune of the author to know personally each of the twenty-one Governors, with the exception of the late W. H. Ellerbe, who served the State in the late 1890's. Little data were available to assist in preparing the sketches-they were written largely from memory. Nevertheless, it is hoped and believed that the sketches are reasonably accurate. No thought was entertained of making the sketches so comprehensive as to furnish a detailed account of the many public activities of the various Governors. That would require endless research into the proceedings of the General Assembly for the last three score years and a stupendous amount of work otherwise, which, at best, could not be recommended as wholly reliable.
