3.0 out of 5 stars
A step down memory lane, but no further.,

This review is from: Edenton and Chowan County (Images of America (Arcadia Publishing)) (Paperback)
Historians and proud Edentonians will find little data in the book but many photos of "famous" residents and landmarks. The book focuses mostly on the county seat of Edenton with only a few references to the "County" (Tyner, Rocky Hock, etc.). I expected something a bit more academic and less of a photo album - I could have refreshed myself on this information by getting a traveler's brochure from the chamber of commerce or by opening up a yearbook.
I was particuarly turned off of the fact that current residents have family group photos in the book. That would be fine for a journalistic book, however for an overview I felt it was too personal. After returning it to the library I chose not to purchase a copy. |
