Autorenporträt
Chester Sansbury was born without a doctor present in a small, four-room house on Anson Street that was once a dependency house for slaves. A descendant of a South Carolinian revolutionary war fighter, Sansbury has lived in SC all of his life except for military service where he attained the rank of colonel in the US Air Force and commanded two large reserve units. His childhood experiences encouraged his interest in treasure hunting and environmental protection. Sansbury continues to seek adventure and explore many places, a passion he has instilled in his own children and grandchildren.
