Book Synopsis Living at the Water's Edge by : Barbara Garrity-Blake
Download or read book Living at the Water's Edge written by Barbara Garrity-Blake and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Outer Banks National Scenic Byway received its designation in 2009, an act that stands as a testament to the historical and cultural importance of the communities linked along the North Carolina coast from Whalebone Junction across to Hatteras and Ocracoke Island and down to the small villages of the Core Sound region. This rich heritage guide introduces readers to the places and people that have made the route and the region a national treasure. Welcoming visitors on a journey across sounds and inlets into villages and through two national seashores, Barbara Garrity-Blake and Karen Willis Amspacher share the stories of people who have shaped their lives out of saltwater and sand. The book considers how the Outer Banks residents have stood their ground and maintained a vibrant way of life while adapting to constant change that is fundamental to life where water meets the land. Heavily illustrated with color and black-and-white photographs, Living at the Water's Edge will lead readers to the proverbial porch of the Outer Banks locals, extending a warm welcome to visitors while encouraging them to understand what many never see or hear: the stories, feelings, and meanings that offer a cultural dimension to the byway experience and deepen the visitor's understanding of life on the tideline.
Download or read book Carteret County written by Lynn Salsi and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Serving as an early port for the shipping interests of New World colonists, Carteret County has enjoyed a long and rich history, one dependent on both the nurturing and destructive character of the sea. Founded by a community of tough and hardy seafarers, the county’s earliest towns, Beaufort, Portsmouth Village, and Morehead City, blossomed into centers of culture, attracting entrepreneurs, recreational hunters and fishermen, families looking for new beginnings, celebrities, and eventually, tourists. This volume, with over 200 extraordinary black-and-white images, captures 100 years of life in Carteret County, from the beginning of the twentieth century to its end. An enchanting visual tour of the Carteret of yesteryear, Carteret County explores the early families, such as the Moreheads, Arendells, and Webbs, that made their homes along the coastline and in the various island communities, the fishermen applying coordination and skill with cast nets and long nets from small vessels to larger trawlers, the men and women laboring in the wharf’s fishhouses, and the everyday citizens who worked, played, and lived on the edges of the Crystal Coast.

Download or read book Portsmouth written by Ellen Fulcher Cloud and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PORTSMOUTH ISLAND, THE GHOST VILLAGE OF THE OUTER BANKS, attracts curiosity seekers and history lovers, both. A small, now uninhabited island southwest of Ocracoke Island, Portsmouth was once a thriving seaport serving the North Carolina coast.Ellen Fulcher Cloud's Portsmouth: The Way It Was shares the island's early history, based on information never before documented: records of storms, wars, and Federal occupation during the Civil War (and claims to the government for losses), along with numerous personal letters and photographs. War activities from the Spanish Invasion through the Civil War are documented, as is the story of America's first marine hospital, established on Portsmouth in 1820, and of Dr. Samuel Dudley, the wealthy second physician in charge. We meet John Wallace, the businessman "Governor of Shell Castle," and the brave members of the Life-Saving Service. We learn of the integral role of the island's one black family, listen in on a daylong interview with Mrs. Mattie Gilgo (1885-1976) about Portsmouth life a century ago, and get an inside look at the village school and postal service. And we learn of Portsmouth's eventual transition to an oddity -- a village of empty homes, church and post office, maintained today by the National Park Service.The book depicts a way of life on the Outer Banks that is all but forgotten.Long almost impossible to find, Portsmouth: The Way It Was is back in an enhanced second edition, with more pages and photographs, computer-enhanced photo resolution and, for the first time, a keepsake, hardcover binding.It is a book that should find its way onto the shelf of every Outer Banks lover.
