Abstract:

Carl Sandburg is perhaps widely known in the United States as a poet and lesser known as a writer of children’s stories. Perhaps better known by North Carolinians about Sandburg is Connamara, Greek Revival summer house in Flat Rock where he lived with his wife, who was just as well known in the community for her raising goats. This dwelling, built in 1839, is a National Historic site.
