This concluding volume of the Literary Trails of North Carolina
trilogy takes readers into an ancient land of pale sand, dense
forests, and expansive bays, through towns older than our country
and rich in cultural traditions. Here, writers reveal lives long
tied to the land and regularly troubled by storms and tell tales of
hardship, hard work, and freedom. Eighteen tours lead readers from
Raleigh to the Dismal Swamp, the Outer Banks, and across the
Sandhills as they explore the region's connections to over 250
writers of fiction, poetry, plays, and creative nonfiction. Along
the way, Georgann Eubanks brings to life the state's rich literary
heritage as she explores these writers' connection to place and
reveals the region's vibrant local culture. Excerpts invite readers
into the authors' worlds, and web links offer resources for further
exploration. Featured authors include A. R. Ammons, Gerald Barrax,
Charles Chesnutt, Clyde Edgerton, Philip Gerard, Kaye Gibbons,
Harriet Jacobs, Jill McCorkle, Michael Parker, and Bland Simpson.
Literary Trails of North Carolina is a project of the North
Carolina Arts Council.
