North Carolina

A heavy fog drifts over the Blue Ridge Parkway. German U-Boats lurk off the Outer Banks.  Shadows lengthen across the Piedmont. Shine some light on the Tar Heel State with our North Carolina history books. Wander the gardens at Biltmore Estate and hike to the Land of Oz.  Catch the flash of a bald eagle fishing lunch from Jordan Lake. Be sure to take a faithful companion with you, like a Plott Hound. Or a North Carolina history book. [View all North Carolina books]

A unique blend of visionaries, risk takers and creative souls lends energy to Asheville's historic streets. Author Marla Milling traces the people and places that make her hometown a truly unique city.


Today, bohemian street performers, funky shops, exquisite art galleries, restaurants and craft breweries blend in among some of the most revered vintage architecture in the country. Discover quirky figures like a "nun" named Sister Bad Habit, who entertains passengers on the LaZoom bus; the "Man in White" living statue; and Asheville's Village Witch. Be inspired by innovative dreamers such as Julian Price, who invested millions in the once-desolate downtown Asheville, giving money to an eclectic mix of restaurateurs and shop owners.
