Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. From 1963 to 1973 the Daniel Boone Wagon Train attracted enthusiastic pioneer wannabes to Northwest North Carolina for an exciting frontier experience. Each June, hundreds of folks brought their old, wooden-wheeled wagons pulled by horses, mules, and oxen and loaded them with ample provisions, excited families, and dreams of adventure. They traveled in a caravan for four days through the foothills and over the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains to parade through the streets of Boone, the town named in honor of America's pioneer hero. Part historical reenactment, part rolling, rollicking party, the expedition was full of wholesome entertainment with old time music, square dancing, and open-pit barbecued chicken served to the thousands of visitors who flocked to each night's campsite in North Wilkesboro, Ferguson, Darby, Triplett, and Boone to join in the special experience. The Wagon Train began in 1963 as a celebration of North Carolina's 300th birthday, the Carolina Charter Tercentenary, and then took on a life of its own, developing its own reputation and its own cast of colorful characters. During the ten years encompassing the annual events, the Sixties and early '70s, America experienced a host of changes as social, economic, scientific, and political events swept through the country: the space race, assassinations, Beatlemania, civil rights demonstrations, race riots, the Viet Nam War, anti-war demonstrations, the Summer of Love, the moon landing, Woodstock, Watergate, and more. The reliable annual Daniel Boone Wagon Train was both a respite from and a marker of our collective journey through those challenging, turbulent, and memorable times 50 years ago.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This book is a regional edition excerpted from the Full Text and available at a lower price especially created for readers with an interest in the North Carolina action. The Battle of Kings Mountain was the turning point of the American Revolution. After more than five years of fighting, the British invaded the southern colonies expecting to amass an army of Loyalists as they marched through. After Major Patrick Ferguson threatened to destroy the homes of the Overmountain settlers in today's east Tennessee and southwest Virginia, these backcountry militiamen marched over the mountains and defeated Ferguson's detachment at King's Mountain, destroying a third of Lord Cornwallis's army. These men had fought Shawnees, Cherokees, Scots Tories, and British Regulars during the prior six years, honing the skills that made them feared as the yelling boys. The story of their engagements from 1774 to 1780 across seven modern states is an exciting episode in the story of these men as heroes of the American Revolution.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The personal memoirs of U.S. Senator James T. Broyhill (R-NC) recounting stories from his 95 years of family life and public life of service to the citizens of North Carolina and the nation as a U.S. Congressman and Senator for 24 years from 1963-1984 and thereafter as Secretary of Commerce for the State of North Carolina. He recounts in first-person about growing up in Lenoir, working jobs after school and weekends, going off to the University of North Carolina where he met Louise Robbins, his bride of 73 years. He shares about his work life at Broyhill Furniture Industries, his introduction to politics and his experiences in Washington, D. C, and abroad across two-and-a-half decades of public service. He shares his thoughts on Statesmanship, Friendship, and presents in delightful detail a talk he enjoyed presenting, 'Presidents I Have Known.' Added to his reminiscences and commentary are recollections and appreciations from those who worked with him and for him. As well, this volume includes the eulogies delivered at his funeral and published tributes at his passing which confirm that Senator James T. Broyhill left a legacy of service to his constituents which set him apart notably from other elected officials and explain why he, as a leader in the Republican Party, was lauded and loved by many, and most especially by his extensive family of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.…
