SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:Edgar Allan Poe in South Carolina\nPresented by Dr. Patricia McNeely \n  \nEdgar Allan Poe was stationed at Fort Moultrie in 1827 and 1828 under the assumed name of Edgar Perry. While there\, Poe was gathering material for the first detective stories in the English language\, including The Goldbug\, which was set on Sullivan’s Island. He also created the first American detective—C. Auguste Dupin\, who was the model for Sherlock Holmes and other modern detectives. The time he spent in South Carolina had a major impact on his literary career\, and Charlestonians are certain that the ghost of Annabel Lee still wanders in a downtown cemetery. \nUSC Professor Emerita Patricia G. “Pat” McNeely taught writing and reporting in the College of Journalism for 33 years. Before joining the USC faculty\, McNeely was a reporter and editor for The Greenville News\, The State and The Columbia Record. She has published several books on South Carolina and Southern history. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Revolution in the Carolinas
DESCRIPTION:The Grim Years: Settling South Carolina\, 1670-1720\nPresented by Dr. John Navin\, Coastal Carolina University \nAs the thirteen colonies were established in the “New World” the roots of the American Revolution were planted. The vast colony of Carolina\, divided in 1710 into North and South Carolina\, saw rapid transformation in its early years. Issues arose with the English Lords Proprietors\, trade with Native American tribes was lucrative but deadly for both sides\, and the growing slave trade at the Port of Charles Town led to an economic dependence on slave labor. It was in South Carolina’s infancy that religious\, political\, and economic turmoil laid the groundwork for the American Revolution. \nDr. John Navin earned his master’s degree at Boston College and his Ph.D. at Brandeis University. A Boston native\, John Navin joined the History department at Coastal Carolina University in 1999. He previously taught at Brandeis and Pfeiffer Universities. A specialist in Early American history\, Navin has published works that focus on race\, warfare\, gender\, and the impact of colonizing ventures on groups and individuals. In 2020\, he published The Grim Years: Settling South Carolina\, 1670-1720. \n \n  \n  \nRevolution in the Carolinas is generously sponsored by:\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:The Battle of Cowpens\nPresented by Mr. John Boyd\n  \nThe Battle of Cowpens\, fought on January 17\, 1781\, during the American Revolutionary War\, was a pivotal engagement that significantly impacted the course of the war in the Southern colonies.  Led by General Daniel Morgan\, the American forces employed a brilliant double-envelopment maneuver\, decisively defeating the British forces under Colonel Banastre Tarleton. This victory boosted American morale\, disrupted British plans\, and paved the way for further successes\, ultimately contributing to the eventual American triumph in the war. Through an examination of the battle’s context\, strategy\, and outcomes\, we will gain insight into its lasting significance in the Revolutionary War and the development of modern military tactics. \nJoin former Cowpens National Battlefield tour guide\, John Boyd\, to explore the strategic importance of the battle\, the key figures involved\, and the tactics employed by both the Continental Army and British forces. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:Retracing the Keowee Trail: A Deep Map of the Cherokee Path in the History of the Carolinas \nPresented by Stuart Taylor  \nIn Retracing the Keowee Trail\, Stuart Taylor tells the story of the Cherokee Path that connected the low country of colonial Carolina with the mountain homeland of the Cherokee Nation. The Keowee Trail was a busy trading route for a burgeoning deerskin trade. Along this same path\, epidemic disease made its way inexorably from the colony toward Cherokee society\, reducing their population by more than half. Along this path\, warfare was waged in both directions\, by Cherokee war parties determined to defend their homeland and by settlers like the author’s Scots Irish ancestors\, evermore hungry for land. That ancestral history is an entry point into this larger narrative. A “deep map” approach to the Keowee Trail will hold together multiple lines of perspective\, including memoir\, family history\, migration patterns\, religious history\, Indigenous wisdom\, trauma theory\, ghost stories\, mythology\, archeology\, geography\, the watersheds\, and the flora and fauna of the Southern Appalachians. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:
