North Carolina: An Economic and Social Profile

This fact-filled source book brings together information on North Carolina’s human and natural resources, economic progress, and institutions. From the geology of the Blue Ridge to the fisheries of the coast; from the methods of processing pulp to the number of wage-earners in the tobacco industry — all are presented here. The book also includes thumb-nail historical sketches of institutions and people.

Originally published in 1958.
