5.0 out of 5 stars
This is an excellent collection of short stories!
Do not, under any circumstances, listen to the previous reviewer (fuzcat) regarding this book. It is an excellent collection of fast reading short stories written for the person who loves the Outer Banks of N.C. If you have fallen under the spell of the OBX, get all of Whedbee's books. I guarantee you will be planning your next visit!

Legends of the Outer Banks and Tar Heel Tidewater
Charles Whedbee is a storyteller and this is reflected in his writing style. I found the style a bit abrupt and halting, but the most of the stories were interesting enough that I did not mind. "Legends of the Outer Banks and Tar Heel Tidewater" tells the local tales of this North Carolina coastal area. The stories start as early as the first settlement, continue...

Legends of the Outer Banks and Tar Heel Tidewater,
By fuzcat (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Legends of the Outer Banks and Tar Heel Tidewater (Hardcover)
Charles Whedbee is a storyteller and this is reflected in his writing style. I found the style a bit abrupt and halting, but the most of the stories were interesting enough that I did not mind. "Legends of the Outer Banks and Tar Heel Tidewater" tells the local tales of this North Carolina coastal area. The stories start as early as the first settlement, continue through until WWII and cover everything from Blackbeard and Hatteras Jack to the fate of Aaron Burr's only daughter. While I think I would much rather sit by a fire and listen to Mr. Whedbee tell his stories, I still think it was worth the time spent reading them. There are some wonderful little gems of North Carolina history hidden in these pages. |
