A good introduction to the state
By A1B0CCML25BAM5 on 2001-07-29
I'm preparing to move to North Carolina, and I thought this book delivered on its promise: a solid introduction to the state. It is a quick read through a variety of topics, including geography, history, politics, sports, travel, entertainment, famous events, and even taxes and motor vehicle laws. If you have time to read only one book, I think this is it. Just don't expect the best travel guide, a complete guide to the golf courses, or a complete history of the state.
Finally....

a book that has all the answers to the questions I've had since moving to North Carolina. It covers a wide range of topics and has so much information - from the state's history to DMV regulations and everything in between. Wish I would have known about this book when I first moved here. I think it's a great book for anyone who is planning on moving to NC or is a newcomer to NC.
Great book for people who know nothing about North Carolina!

This book is a great introductory read for those wanting to know more about North Carolina(especially if you are moving there). It has everything from a history, to the state government, to pop cluture and stories of the state, to even DMV information. I'm leaving a lot out, but you get the picture. The only problem I have with this book is that there is only one map in the entire book. It is of the whole state, but only has nine cities on it. You will want an atlas to go with the book to see where some of the places he mentions are. Other than that a great book and I definately recommend it.
Factual but Boring

Nice book, not very intriguing, at times read like an almanac. Good for Carolina facts
Exactly what I was looking for
By A3EZZTRS056F76 on 2006-11-21
We just moved to NC and I wanted a book "to get my feet wet" this is exactly what I was looking for. Lots of misc facts and history. I felt like I had a better feeling for the place when I got here than I am sure I would have without.
