South Carolina Books

This was a very informative book. I gave this to my friend for his birthday. We sat down with our other friend and planned out places to go. It was very informative about the places and even listed the town I live in.
I recommend it to anyone who likes day trips or learning about different places.

This photographic portfolio of North Carolina emphasizes the natural beauty of the state, with breathtaking images of everything from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the sandy Atlantic beaches. Some images of the cities are also included. The images were carefully selected from over twenty different photographers. Most of the images were shot on large format film (4 x 6) resulting in a high level of resolution in the printed reproductions. This is one of the best books of its kind - and I have purchased quite a few.

We re using the yellow book in class and it is not as good or helpful as this book. I use this book along with the required text and this is far better. Our teacher agrees although he prefers the other book because in answer section it gives you the page number of the info for the question you miss.

I did like this book and I think it has very important information. This being said, I was upset to find that this book only lists last names that begin with 'A' through 'H'. Where are the names 'J' through 'Z'? Unfortunately all of my family names fall into this category!

North Carolina has well over fifty natural and recreational areas, and "North Carolina State Parks: A Niche Guide" is here to guide readers through its expansive wilderness to get the most out of their visits - there may even be something here for native North Carolinians that they haven't seen before. Covering every activity it can - hiking, camping, birding, boating, and more - "North Carolina State Parks: A Niche Guide" is a highly recommended guide with over one hundred full color pages, filled cover to cover with invaluable information. It's a pick for armchair travelers and real world travelers a like, and an essential addition to community library travel & nature collections.

I love this book. I know how hard and time consuming it must have been to put the book together. I live in North Carolina and it was great to see pictures of what it looked like years ago next to pictures of what it looks like now.

I started reading this and knew I had to keep it for myself, so I could know all those tidbits about North Carolina. Enjoyable!!

Peter J. Robinson has written an excellent book on the diverse
and often extreme weather and climate of my beautiful state of
North Carolina.
Complete with maps,photos,and tables,the author does a fine
job in his coverage of our weather.
Robinson is careful not to omit some worthy regard to the
greatest of Tar Heel storms,including hurricanes Hazel,Fran,
and Floyd.The devastating tornadoes of 1984 and the white Christmas of 1989 are also given justice.
Most of the book is provided in a generalized form of writing,
yet it is done in a very interesting and professional manner.And
what could not be interesting about our weather? With temperatures that have ranged anywhere from -34 to as high as
110 degrees.We have suffered through several major hurricanes,
extreme heat waves and drought,as well as devastating floods.And
we lay claim to one of the widest tornadoes in history-2.5 miles!
Greg Fishel delivers a most intriguing foreward to this book.
This book is a great educational tool for anyone interested in our state`s weather and climate.Also,it serves as a nice keepsake for any weather enthusiasts who are native to our great state.

Having just moved to the Mountains of North Carolina and an amatuer nature photobrapher, I needed to know where to go for hikes that had great displays of wildflowers. This book appears to be excellant. It isn't spring yet so only time will tell, but I am very hopeful.

All true Carolina fans should buy this book and read over the games that players such as Sean May, Raymond Felton, and Rashad McCants won to get us to the top of the college basketball world! This book discusses every single game of the 05-06 season in very good detail! It also has player profiles of the players that played at Carolina during that season including Sean May, Raymond Felton, Rashad McCants, and Jawad Williams!

Any Carolina fan should buy this book to read and for great memories of our 5th Championship season at UNC! I hope my review was helpful to you!
