Book Series
In 1997, in association with the University of South Carolina Press, the Carolina Lowcountry and Atlantic World Program established a book series that publishes monographs, collections of original essays, and scholarly editions of significant primary sources for the study of the Carolian Lowcountry and/or Atlantic context in which it developed.
The first volume, Money, Trade, and Power: The Evolution of South Carolina’s Plantation Economy (edited by Jack Greene, Rosemary Brana-Shute, and Randy Sparks) is a collection of essays based on papers presented at our first annual conference. The Impact of the Haitian Revolution in the Atlantic World (edited by David Geggus) and London Booksellers and American Customers: Transatlantic Literary community and the Charleston Library Society by James Raven were published in the academic year of 2001/02.
In addition to 12 titles already in print in the program’s book series, collections of essays from the 2000 conference on manumission in the Atlantic World, the 2002 material culture conference, the 2003 cuisines conference, the 2004 Jewish intellectual émigré conference, 2007 Irish Atlantic conference, and the 2008 Ambiguous Anniversary are all also in various stages of production.
Do you have a manuscript in hand or in preparation that would fit the scope of this series? Do you know others who do? Please contact Simon Lewis (lewiss@cofc.edu) or David Gleeson (david.gleeson@northumbria.ac.uk) to explore this possibility.

Through a private donation, CLAW also publishes with the University of South Carolina Press the best monograph on a topic within its broad subject areas. Our first such publication was Bertrand Van Ruymbeke's Out of New Babylon: The Huguenots in Colonial South Carolina.
Additionally, CLAW biennially awards the Hines Prize for the best first book relating to any aspect of the history and life of the Carolina Lowcountry and/or the Atlantic World. Next Deadline: May 1, 2009.
The following series titles are available from the University of South Carolina Press by visiting www.sc.edu/uscpress
