Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New archeological discoveries may finally solve the greatest mystery of Colonial America in this history of Roanoke and Hatteras Islands. Established on what is now North Carolina’s Roanoke Island, the Roanoke Colony was intended to be England’s first permanent settlement in North America. But in 1590, the entire population disappeared without a trace. The only clue to their fate was the word “Croatoan” carved into a tree. For centuries, the legend of the Lost Colony has captivated imaginations. Now, archaeologists from the University of Bristol, working with the Croatoan Archaeological Society, have uncovered tantalizing clues to the fate of the colony. In The Lost Colony and Hatteras Island, Hatteras native and amateur archaeologist Scott Dawson compiles what scholars know about the Lost Colony along with what scholars have found beneath the soil of Hatteras.

Book excerpt: 2nd EDITION. UPDATED AND EXPANDED. (HARDCOVER PUB. 2019, PAPERBACK 2020) Among America's coastal icons, the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse ranks at the very top, alongside the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate Bridge. The other two are in major metropolitan areas. The lighthouse is on a fragile, 50-mile-long, two-thirds-of-a-mile-wide island 30 miles out to sea. Those who visit Hatteras understand they're decidedly in the ocean and only marginally on land.For a remote patch of real estate with a year-round population of little more than 3,000, Hatteras has witnessed extraordinary history. It may have been the destination of the Lost Colony. Blackbeard likely hobnobbed with the locals. The Monitor went to its watery grave nearby. Radio towers on the island made history's first transmission of music and received the distress call from the Titanic. Billy Mitchell proved the ascendancy of air power by sinking a pair of mothballed battleships offshore. Bodies washed up on the beach following U-boat attacks during World War II. The surfmen at the island's lifesaving stations made some of the most heroic rescues ever.But Hatteras Island: Keeper of the Outer Banks is more than a history. It is rather, as author Ray McAllister says, "a conversation with an island." It tells of a vacation paradise that can change instantly into a storm center, of a resort island kept largely free of development-but hardly of controversy-by a national seashore park. It tells of the hardy few who brave the Hatteras winters, those who come to catch record-sized fish from the piers, those who travel disaster-prone Highway 12 and who drove the bare sand before it, those who stood and watched as a 208-foot lighthouse was moved half a mile."Pull up a chair," McAllister says. "Have a listen."

Book Synopsis The Civil War on Hatteras Island, North Carolina by : Drew Pullen
Download or read book The Civil War on Hatteras Island, North Carolina written by Drew Pullen and published by Aerial Perspective. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hatteras Island has achieved a well-deserved reputation as a summer getaway and a wildlife refuge on North Carolina's coast. However, most visitors are unaware of the crucial role that Hatteras played in the Civil War. The book offers a new view of Hatteras's history, interweaving historical facts, archival drawings, and current photography of how the island looks today. In addition, the book reveals the largely unknown journals of Edwin Graves Champney, a Union soldier who was stationed on Hatteras from 1862 to 1863. Champney's prose and artistic talents, along with the quotes of soldier Charles F. Johnson of the Ninth New York, shed new light on the experiences of Civil War soldiers stationed on the Outer Banks during that time. It follows the crucial maritime battles along the Outer Banks and the famous Burnsides Expedition. This is a fascinating history of how one of America's most treasured islands played a significant part in the Civil War and is a must for any reader.

Download or read book Hatteras Blues written by Tom Carlson and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Carlson tells the story of Ernal Foster and the Foster family of Hatteras Village, who gave birth to what would become the multi-million dollar charter fishing industry on the Outer Banks. Today, Ernal's son, Captain Ernie Foster, struggles to keep the family business alive in a time of great change on the Banks. Within the engaging saga of the rise and decline of one family's livelihood, Carlson relates the history and transformation of Hatteras Village and the high-adrenaline experience of blue-water sportfishing and the industry that surrounds it. Hatteras Blues is their story--a story of triumph and loss, of sturdy Calvinist values and pell-mell American progress, and of fate and luck as capricious as the weather.

Book Synopsis The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse by : Dawson Carr
Download or read book The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse written by Dawson Carr and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1871 the Cape Hatteras lighthouse has been a welcome sight for sailors entering the treacherous region off North Carolina's Outer Banks known as the Graveyard of the Atlantic. At 208 feet high, it is the tallest lighthouse in the country and one of the state's most famous landmarks. Through the years, it has withstood the ravages of both humans and nature, weathering numerous violent storms and two wars. But perhaps the gravest threat the structure faced in recent history was the erosion of several hundred yards of beach that once stood between it and the ocean. As powerful tides and rising sea levels increasingly endangered the lighthouse's future, North Carolinians debated fiercely over how best to save it, eventually deciding on a controversial plan to move the beacon inland to safety. First published by UNC Press in 1991, this book tells the story of the noble lighthouse from its earliest history to the present day. In this new edition, Dawson Carr details the recent relocation of the treasured landmark. For now, it seems, North Carolinians have succeeded in protecting their lighthouse, as it has protected them for over a century.
