Step into the original Hall of History and see North Carolina as its first state curator presented it. History comes vividly alive inside. In this classic North Carolina history guidebook, Fred A. Olds leads readers through the early collections of what would become the North Carolina Museum of History. Written in the early 20th century North Carolina voice of a passionate preservationist, it records North Carolina historical artifacts alongside portraits, documents and other treasured artefacts at the moment they were gathered to tell the story of a state and its people. Both a museum tour guide North Carolina enthusiasts can follow on the page and a lasting state history reference book, Guide to the Hall of History of North Carolina offers a vivid portrait of the North Carolina Hall of History and captures the texture of North Carolina cultural heritage within the wider tapestry of Southern United States history. It serves today as a rich resource for genealogists, teachers and history students tracing families, communities and public life, and as one of the most evocative Southern state history guides for anyone curious about how a modern museum was first imagined. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
