"Bald Head is many things," David Stick says in introducing the reader to this book. "It is, first, the infamous "Cape of Feare," scourge of mariners for centuries past, its appended wreck-strewn shoals stretching far out into the turbulent Atlantic. But throughout recorded history it has stood as a friendly and reliable sentry, guarding the approaches to North Carolina's chief river and only major seaport. "Bald Head is at times bleak and foreboding, its shores exposed to the awe-inspiring fury of hurricanes churning up from the Caribbean. Yet, often as not, even as the cyclonic winds abate it is transformed into a lush and verdant paradise, quiet, peaceful, and secluded. Even the name is misleading; for while some apply it to an entire island and others only to part of an island, there are still others to whom "Bald Head" is no more than a small part of a part of a single island." David Stick treats of these matters, and many more, as he tells the fascinating story of Bald Head, Smith Island, and Cape Fear. It is a factual story, for Stick is the acknowledged authority on the history of coastal North Carolina; but it is an exciting and engrossing story as well, told in the flowing narrative style for which he is noted. This is the story of the infamous pirate Stede Bonnet and the fierce battle in which he was captured. It is the story of the schooner "Minnie," wrecked on the farthest reaches of Frying Pan Shoals, and the brave surfmen from the Cape Fear Lifesaving Station who rowed for hours through tumultuous seas to save them. It is the story of Landgrave Thomas Smith, for whom the island was named, and his grandson, Governor Benjamin Smith, the last Smith to own the island complex. It is the story of Old Baldy, the oldest standing lighthouse in North Carolina, and of Cape Fear Lighthouse and Cap'n Charlie Swan, who served as its keeper for three decades. It is the story of the pilots who used Bald Head as a lookout post; of blockade runners, whose sleek craft were lost nearby; and of Fort Holmes, built on Bald Head during the Civil War, and the soldiers of the 40th Regiment of North Carolina who occupied it. Scientists have long known Bald Head as the home of an amazing variety of plant and animal life, a place where species not ordinarily expected to coexist somehow manage to flourish side by side. And in an era of rampant oceanfront development it was inevitable that Bald Head would attract people interested in living on or visiting such an island paradise, resulting in a struggle over the fate of Bald Head that was long, noisy, and divisive. This, too, is an integral part of the story of Bald Head, and Stick concludes his history of the island with an incisive yet objective account of a classic conflict between the forces of conservation and development.".
