Looking Back

Two stories of plane crashes in the Oconee County mountains are among the many stories from past issues of the Keowee Courier that are contained in this, the twelfth book in the Looking Back series. This book also contains some commentaries by Courier editor Ashton Hester, and highlights from the years 1938, 1948, 1958, 1988, 1998 and 2008. It is the author's hope that the Looking Back books will bring back some nostalgic memories for longtime residents and provide some historical insight for younger people and newcomers to the area. The Keowee Courier was founded in 1849. Sadly, it was recently closed down, with the final issue coming out on March 27, 2019.
