Western North Carolina during the 1840s and 1850s was very much a region of communities; and its development during that period was characterized by a subtle interplay of its residents' identities as parts of larger wholes. In social; economic; and particularly political terms; they came to see themselves as citizens of towns and/or counties within their mountain district; as westerners within North Carolina; as North Carolinians with the South; and as southerners within the nation.

A Great Book for WWII BuffsBy Craig EllisI received a review copy of Dickey Chapelle Under Fire: Photographs by the First American Female War Correspondent Killed in Action. I'd always had in interest in WWII and have devoured books on the subject. But I was unaware of Dickey Chapelle and her contribution to the war and it's posterity.
