Описание: New Voyages to North Carolina offers a bold new approach for understanding and telling North Carolina's history. Recognizing the need for such a fresh approach and reflecting a generation of recent scholarship, eighteen distinguished authors have sculpted a broad, inclusive narrative of the state's evolution over more than four centuries. The volume provides new lenses and provocative possibilities for reimagining the state's past. Transcending traditional markers of wars and elections, the contributors map out a new chronology encompassing geological realities; the unappreciated presence of Indians, blacks, and women; religious and cultural influences; and abiding preferences for industrial development within the limits of ""progressive"" politics. While challenging traditional story lines, the authors frame a candid tale of the state's development.
Contributors include Dorothea V. Ames, Karl E. Campbell, James C. Cobb, Peter A. Coclanis, Stephen Feeley, Jerry Gershenhorn, Glenda Elizabeth Gilmore, Patrick Huber, Charles F. Irons, David Moore, Michael Leroy Oberg, Stanley R. Riggs, Richard D. Starnes, Carole Watterson Troxler, Bradford J. Wood, and Karin Zipf.

Описание: Frank Porter Graham and the 1950 Senate Race in North Carolina
Описание: Billings disputes the assumption that an incipient merchant class built the state`s cotton mills; he reveals that a majority of the early mills were owned by prominent planters and agrarians. He shows the persistent hegemony and support for industrialization among the landed upper class and describes several generations of five powerful North Carolina families.

Описание: Built from materials gathered from archives, libraries, interviews, and photographs of locations relevant to the historical presence of the French in North Carolina, this book traces the French heritage in North Carolina from its origins to the present and tells the story of a little-known but important part of North Carolina`s cultural history.
Описание: In 1974, Paul M. Fink published Backpacking Was the Only Way, a memoir of exploration in the Smoky Mountain backcountry that is long out of print. The basis of the book was a journal kept from 1914 to 1938, combined with evocative photographs that Fink compiled into a manuscript he called Mountain Days. The manuscript is now considered to be a unique and insightful first-person account of the region. Containing rare historical accounts of the manways, camps, and cabins once used by adventurers exploring the mountains before the advent of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, this is the first widely-accessible publication of Mountain Days. This edition features a new foreword by Ken Wise, professor and director of the Great Smoky Mountain Regional Project at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville's John C. Hodges Library. An open access edition of Mountains Days is available from the Hunter Library at Western Carolina University.

Описание: In the introduction of new farming implements alone, this period witnessed revolutionary changes in which North Carolina had a significant part. To note the developments of this nature, rather than to record the history of the state's agriculture in this period, has been the principal aim of this study.

Автор: Gerard Philip Название: The Last Battleground: The Civil War Comes to North Carolina ISBN: 1469666111 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781469666112 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 3762.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: To understand the long march of events in North Carolina from secession to surrender is to understand the entire Civil War--a personal war waged by Confederates and Unionists, free blacks and the enslaved, farm women and plantation belles, Cherokees and mountaineers, conscripts and volunteers, gentleman officers and poor privates. In the state's complex loyalties, its sprawling and diverse geography, and its dual role as a home front and a battlefield, North Carolina embodies the essence of the whole epic struggle in all its terrible glory.
Philip Gerard presents this dramatic convergence of events through the stories of the individuals who endured them--reporting the war as if it were happening in the present rather than with settled hindsight--to capture the dreadful suspense of lives caught up in a conflict whose ending had not yet been written. As Gerard reveals, whatever the grand political causes for war, whatever great battles decided its outcome, and however abstract it might seem to readers a century and a half later, the war was always personal.
