Charleston Firsts by Mark R Jones
IN 2014 CHARLESTON WAS NAMED THE #1 CITY IN AMERICA BY CONDE NAST TRAVELER FOR THE 4TH YEAR IN A ROW Being FIRST is not out of the ordinary for this extraordinary city. Charleston has a long list of revolutionary events and pioneering accomplishments. If you've ever wondered why Charleston is called America's Most Historic City historian and tour guide, MARK R. JONES, gives you an in depth look at the most compelling reasons.
Jones, Mark R.: - Mark R. Jones is a ninth-generation native of South Carolina. He is a licensed City of Charleston tour guide, conducting carriage tours for Palmetto Carriage and daytime history and nighttime ghost tours for Bulldog Walking Tours. Mark is also one of a select group of guides who conducts the Dark Side of Charleston Tour for Bulldog: the tour that inspired the writing of the Wicked Charleston books. The Dark Side is the only non-ghost nighttime tour in Charleston. On average, Mark conducts twenty tours a week, about one thousand per year. He is the author of Wicked Charleston: The Dark Side of the Holy City, which covers the history of the founding of Charles Towne from a unique perspective: drinking, prostitution and murder. The Charleston Post and Courier called the book a solid (if tipsy) foundation for the revelry to come.? Wicked Charleston, Volume 2 is the continuation of that revelry. In his free time, Mark is always on the prowl for new salacious stories about Charleston. Information about Mark, his books, tours, personal blog and speaking engagements can be found at his web site: www.wickedcharleston.net.
