Abstract

Coastal North Carolina, and especially Wilmington and the Lower CapeFear area, has been the location for many exciting events for more than four centuries. This book provides a comprehensive tool for discovering these sites.  In this easy-to-use guide, author Jack E. Fryar, a native of Wilmington, offers an illustrated tour of the many historical tourism stops in the southeastern part of the state. The list of entries is color-coded by location and includes a wide range of sites, including the gardens, cemeteries, museums, and even the North Carolina Room at the New Hanover County Public Library.
