He brings this old city to life.”

This 49 minute DVD portrays a world that in 1989, Charleston was still ...

“to poor to paint and too proud to whitewash.”
This is a chance to see Charleston before “the change.”
Filmed in 1989-90, this DVD follows a tour given at that time through a Charleston that had not really changed for a century. Today, the population is seven times what it was then. The buildings are still there, but they are no longer inhabited by native Charlestonians. Featuring interviews with the late Berneston Baker, Elizabeth Verner Hamilton and Jan Huger, this film reflects a gentler time when “characters” ruled as well as historical facts that few know.
It has been said that Charleston leapt from the 19th Century to the 21st in a single bound. This presentation of the city has preserved it as a fly in amber.
