Join author Robin R. Salmon as she recounts the history of Brookgreen Gardens located in through the lens of 200 vintage images. Brookgreen Gardens evolved into the cultural attraction it is today from its beginning in 1930 as a winter home for philanthropist Archer Milton Huntington and his wife, sculptor Anna Hyatt Huntington.
