This first major work on the historic preservation movement in North Carolina is as much an examination of the state’s social and cultural history as it is an organizational study. The book chronicles early efforts of Tar Heels to rescue their historic properties from neglect and the bulldozer. Contains 86 black-and-white illustrations.
