North Carolina Books

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.

Finally there is someone out there who feels for the average person. For too many years we drivers have been at the mercy of overpaid attorneys charging ridiculous fees to settle traffic tickets. I for one should know. While playing golf in North Carolina, I purchased this book. Since that time I have saved a lot in attorney fees and had my restriction lifted in N.C. I thank Leonard for putting his time and effort into a product thats worth more than its weight in gold. I highly recommend this book.

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

These books are an excellent source for information about North Carolina troops and units during the Civil War. The records are taken from the official state records kept by the units and available through the North Carolina State Archives.

I was lucky to find and purchase volumes I - XIII, which are all out of print. I have also purchased Volumes XIV and XV. All of these books are excellent resources to acquire information on soldiers who served from North Carolina. There are only 1400 copies of each volume printed, and most complete sets are only found in North Carolina libraries. For the genealogist, historian, etc., I would highly recommend these books.

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.

I bought this for my daughter who is 5 and she loved it. We were able to match many flowers in the book to her delight! I was so sorry when I can in here to see it was out of print! What a great book for a child in any location. PLease reprint this book!

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!
