Abstract:
The fall of 1999 was a devastating one for the people of eastern North Carolina. A trio of hurricanes battered the region, particularly Hurricane Floyd, causing flood and storm damage to thousands of homes. The Southern Oral History Program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill collected a host of stories from eastern North Carolina residents about their experiences with the flooding caused by Hurricane Floyd and how neighbors and strangers came together.
