Great retelling of an important part of the history of South Carolina. Resonates well in the divided, emotionally charged, modern political environment. Had always known some of the story, but this filled in important details and connections to later political figures and events. Sharpens the distinctions between geographical areas of SC and its institutions. Thank you for the story.

Thanks for reading and commenting, Landrum. This one was fun to research. Surreal that the event actually happened in broad daylight right in front of the Capital.

A fascinating tale, compellingly told! Definitely adding Stormy Petrel to my to-be-read pile.
