| The
Coasts of Carolina By Bland Simpson and Scott Taylor The Coasts of Carolina captures the vibrancy of the North Carolina oceanfront, sound country, and interior shores behind the barrier islands. Scott Taylor, who has been photographing the coast for almost thirty years, and Bland Simpson, whose many coastal books have delighted readers for two decades, come together to offer an inviting visual and textual portrait organized around coastal themes such as nature, fishing, and community life, with an emphasis on particular places and seasons. Evocative text is woven together with 145 vivid color images to present a unique and welcoming vision of the coastal region. As natives of the area, the collaborators venture beyond the familiar to show us swamp, marsh, river, sound, and seashore, uncovering places of uncommon delight that most visitors rarely lay eyes on. Their work celebrates the beauty of this amazing region and embodies their distinctive sense of what makes the North Carolina coast so special. To order click HERE. |

Wild Horses of Shackleford Banks by Carmine Prioli photographs by Scott Taylor There is an island at the remote southern end of North Carolina's Outer Banks where you might see wild horses playing in the surf, or grazing within view of the Cape Lookout Lighthouse, or scattering into a rare, weather-beaten maritime forest. Mystery and controversy have always surrounded the Shackleford horses. The Wild Horses of Shackleford Banks is a comprehensive overview of the famous herd-its possible origins and development, its hardiness in the face of hurricanes, its complex relationship with humans, its hard-won protection within Cape Lookout National Seashore. The book's plentiful illustrations-both archival and contemporary- show why the Shackleford horses are so beloved among visitors to the Outer Banks. $16.95 paperback By Blair Publishers 7½ X 9¼ 122 pages |
