“This book is a treasure. Its stories and pictures bring to life a piece of Americana in North Carolina. Many of the photos are places that still exist nd which one can readily visit and I have placed so many on my “must see” list. The people are real, the places are real, and the stories behind the photos are real. This book captures a rapidly disappearing Americana and I am greatly indebted to the author for composing the book and to the people who consented to have their stories told. I will treasure this book always.”

“Great for NC Culture. As a NC history teacher, this book is great for my classroom. Using the pictures, I can introduce teh past and how people lived and discuss the importance of maintaining these places for future citizens to know their roots.”

“Fantastic book. If you are from NC or justlike NC then you will enjoy this book. It is about old towns, stores, and tales from an old time. I saw the PBS special that was inspired by the photos or vice versa and looked for the book immediately. I was thrilled to find it.”
