A Little Book About Pawleys Island
Written by local Pawleys Island artist and author Vida Miller, A Little Book About Pawleys Island is a love letter to one of South Carolina’s most storied barrier islands. Blending history, humor, folklore, and firsthand Lowcountry perspective, this fifth edition captures the spirit of Pawleys the way only a true local can — unpolished, enduring, quietly magical, and proudly “arrogantly shabby.”
Inside these pages, readers will find a lively mix of fact, fiction, and fun. From the island’s early history and lingering legends to beloved recipes, quirky traditions, and the ever-watchful Gray Man ghost, Vida brings Pawleys Island to life with warmth and wit. It’s the kind of book you pick up for a quick read and end up lingering over — equal parts storytelling and time capsule.
Perfect for first-time visitors, longtime locals, beach house coffee tables, or thoughtful hostess gifts, this slim volume is easy to tuck into a beach bag or stack beside your favorite coastal reads. It’s a keepsake that feels personal, nostalgic, and unmistakably Pawleys.
Available at Gray Man Gallery in Pawleys Island, this locally written favorite celebrates the history, heart, and heritage of the South Carolina coast.
