From the preface: "William Gilmore Simms, the editor's grandfather, wrote in 1840 for his children and for use in the schools "The History of South Carolina from Its First European Discovery to Its erection into a Republic." In 1860 the third edition of the history was published in which Simms brought the narrative down to that date. The editor offers in the present volume a revised and enlarged edition of the third edition of the work, intended primarily for use as a text book in the schools of South Carolina."
