Abstract:
Many smaller towns along North Carolina's coast are falling victim to spreading development and increasing tax rates. With commercial fishing declining and a high market value on property, many working-class people choose to sell in hopes of getting some financial security. When this happens, the old traditions that have existed in towns for over one hundred years slowly slip away. Salter Path in Carteret County is one example. The town is poised on the edge of exploding prices, modern development, and inevitable irreversible change. Morris discusses the work of Fielding Darden, who produced a CD and book in 2006, titled WILL THIS TOWN SURVIVE, and his activities to preserve the town's history.
