Abstract:

In the early days, the Department of Conservation and Development, the Chamber of Commerce, and or The State did not exist to market North Carolina's features. However, expert salesmanship was by no means lacking. North Carolina's first publicity agents were the experienced sea captains, Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe who came over in 1584 to explore for Sir Walter Raleigh. Other agents of publicity for the state soon followed.
