 Welcome to a new season of the award-winning Hill Country Authors Podcast, sponsored by Stoney Creek Publishing. In this podcast, Hill Country resident Tom Fox visits with authors who live in and writes up the Texas Hill Country. In this episode, Tom Fox visits Charles Swenson, a passionate historian and author of Voices of Camptown.’ Swenson delves into the rich history of Camptown, a freedmen’s colony established in Brenham, Texas, following the Civil War. He explains his involvement in uncovering this lost community’s legacy, spurred by the discovery of the overgrown Camptown Cemetery. Swenson shares insights into the lives of the African American families who once resided there, their struggles during Reconstruction, and their achievements despite the adversities of Jim Crow. He also emphasizes the crucial role of education and the significant contributions of military veterans to these communities. Swenson’s research methods and collaboration with the Brenham Heritage Museum, along with local individuals like Eddie Harrison, highlight a neglected chapter of Texas history that he is dedicated to preserving. The episode closes with information on how listeners can learn more about Swenson’s work and his upcoming book.
