Abstract:

Eagles Island lies on the border of New Hanover and Brunswick between the Cape Fear and Brunswick rivers. Lying adjacent to Wilmington, the island was a prime spot for developers. Marsh discusses the work of a grassroots group - the Coalition for the Preservation of Eagles Island - that took on the task of protecting the island from development.
