Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located in the history-rich heart of eastern North Carolina, Pitt County has been the stage for a colorful cast of characters and intriguing events that have filled the area's past with larger-than-life-stories. With beginnings that stretch back nearly 250 years, Pitt County has been home to clairvoyants, tobacco tycoons, Civil War soldiers and more than a few star-crossed lovers. Pitt County's residents have survived several wars, Reconstruction, economic depression, and more recently, urban sprawl. As the booming tobacco industry changed the county's landscape, development slowly spread outward from the bustling county seat in Greenville. But out in the country, folks remained tied to the land their fathers' fathers had tilled; a land of dirt roads, old family homesteads and memories in the moonlight. Drawing from hundreds of columns from his history feature in the Greenville Times, historian and artist Roger Kammerer presents an eclectic, ambling journey through the ages, stopping along the way to visit with some of Pitt County's more influential, memorable, and often unusual characters. With a charming blend of history, nostalgia and humor, Recollections of Pitt County is a captivating path for history lovers to follow as they wander further down the community's collective memory lane.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Pitt County: A Brief History of the County, 1704-1910; Illustrations and Maps These Sketches are not intended as a biography, genealogy or advertisement, but the demand for sketches of many of Pitt's prominent men, both of the past and the present, has made necessary the addition of a second part, where many such sketches may be found. And from a financial stand point, it has been found well to allow advertisements or a directory of some of the County and Towns. But all are parts, separate and distinct, and not confusing. With a consciousness that much matter of historical value is here preserved that should be a source of patriotic pride to the people of the County, and simply asking credit for whatever merit may be found in them these Sketches of Pitt County are respectfully submitted.

Download or read book Well Worth a Shindy written by Sarah Brandes Madry and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-03 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well Worth a Shindy tells the story of the Old Well, beloved symbol of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the United States' first public university. The Old Well is a Greco-Roman garden temple built in 1897 over an old water well on the campus. The facts concerning the Old Well's beginnings serve to introduce an historical study of the round temple from Mycenaean tholos tombs and treasuries to eighteenth-century English garden follies. The reasons that the Old Well was built, according to its commissioner, Edwin Alderman, the sixth president of the University of North Carolina, are repetitious of those that directed such as Alexander the Great, Augustus Caesar, and Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain to build round temples to be symbols of their territorial and dynastic desires. The mythological, philosophical, and artistic conventions that Alderman and the designer of the Old Well, Eugene Lewis Harris, used to construct the temple were not new but were ancient guides filtered through Medieval and Renaissance prisms. A catalog of over 100 round structures in 14 countries is provided.
