"Blackberries in the Summer" portrays the life of Eulalie Salley with special emphasis on her drive for women's rights and her remarkable role in the development of Aiken's Winter Colony. Her career in real estate placed her in contact with the rich and famous people who came to Aiken to build winter cottages and participate in the community's equestrian lifestyle in the first half of the twentieth century.
This was an interesting book about where I lived. Learned a lot about the history of the area and the Winter Colony. As well as learning who Eulalie Salley was.
