Elisabeth Carpenter Satterthwait

A Son of the Carolinas: A Story of the Hurricane upon the Sea Islands is an 1898 book by Elisabeth Carpenter Satterthwait about the effects on the local people of the 1893 Sea Islands hurricane which devastated the South Carolina coastal lowlands in late August of that year. The book is noted for its "well-told story," "novelty of theme and locality" and its use of the native dialect of the Gullah islanders of African descent.
