The third volume of “A New
Geography of North Carolina,” by
Bill Sharpe, publisher and editbr
of THE STATfe Magazine, is off
the press.
Containing 565 pages, and pro
fusely illustrated, a feature of
the volume is a thorough and de
partmentalized index, making the
contents readily available when
used for reference. It is published
by the Sharpe Publishing Co.,
Inc. of Raleigh.
Although titled “a geography,”
this work, like the preceding
ones, actually is a description of
26 North Carolina counties, and
includes also history, current de
velopment, and most of each
county’s best known anecdotes,
folklore and legends.
Sharpe commenced work on “A
New Geography” in September of
1951, and in 10 years has almost
reached the three-quarter mark
toward covering the whole state
The current volum^ brings to 7?
the number of counties treated
and Volume IV, with 28 countie?
will conclude the series. Sharpe
says he hopes to haye this ready
within the next three or four
years. Completion of the work, he
thinks, will mark the first time
any state has been described coun
ty by county with so much detail
and background included.
Volume III has chapters on: An
son, Bladen, Catawba, Chowan.
Cleveland, Craven, Cumberland,
Currituck, Edgecombe, Graham.
Harnett, Jackson, Lenoir, Lincoln,
Macon, Madison, Montgomery,
Northhampton, Pamlico, Pender,
Polk, Sampson, Surry, Stanly,
Washington, Yancey.
Interest Maintained
With “A New Geography of
North Carolina,” Bill Sharpe un
dertook a monumental labor—
and the wonder is that his inter
est does not seem to be lagging,
after 10 years at the task.
As the list above indicates,
readers will not find Moore Coun
ty in the new volume. Moore was
the subject of some 30 pages of
facts, figures and commentary in
Volume I which is available, by
the way, at the Southern Pines
Library.
These books are ideal for ran
dom reading. Open them any
where and you’ll find a few lines
that will catch your fancy and,
before you know it, you’ll be
reading all the rest of the section
on that particular county—and
then going on to others.
Some Quotations
Just for fun, we tried this ran
dom opening With Volume III.
Here are a few of the passages
we hit:
In Craven County: A descrip
tion of a duel fought by' two
prominent citizens in 1802: “. . .
Both shots went wild on the first
exchange. They loaded and fired
again, and this time a buUet went
through Stanly’s coat collar. The

third exchange was another pair
of misses. . .”
From Lincoln County: . .
Early on an autumn morning,
in October, 1864, there rode out
from headquarters, jauntily sit
ting upon his horse, a young
Confederate soldier and upon his
left breast, just over his heart
was pinned a beautiful whi,te
rose bud. ...”
From Montgomery County:
. . The school was the hub of
entertainment for miles around
. . . One citizen recalls riding on
a mule from Capelsie for the big
doings with a quarter in his pock
et. For three solid days he drank
all he could hold of the lemonade
sold at the booths set up for the
festivities, and still was able to
take a dime home. . .”
From Yancey County (about
bear hunting): “. . . A good dog
will stick on a trail against any
obstacle. . . Ewart says he has
known a dog to follow a trail
clean out of the county. He has
seen a famished, forlorn and
weary pack following a trail,
bawling weakly, and going at a
walk but still intent on the
hunt. . .”
Could you stop reading on
starting at any of those para
graphs?
Flavor cil Life
Everywhere Sharpe has been
—and its obvious he’s visited all
the places he’s writing about
(quite an achievement in itself)—
he has talked to people, has got
ten the flavor of life there now
and in the past and has dug up
more anecdotes, legends and odd
ments than have ever been re
corded in any single book about
Tarheelia.
Two pf Moore’s neighboring
counties, Harnett and Cum*ber-
land, are dealt with in the new
Volume HI, the accounts abound
ing in Scots lore and giving a
picture of the way of life from
which many natives of the Sand-
i hills are descended.
