The Damsel of Darien

In partnership with the University of South Carolina Press, the Simms Initiatives at the University of South Carolina Libraries reissue authoritative editions of out of print works by William Gilmore Simms, antebellum South Carolina’s preeminent man of letters. Each volume also includes a new scholarly introduction. This is a facsimile of the 1839 edition, with critical introduction by Michael Odom and biographical overview by David Moltke-Hansen.
