Abstract:

The town boasting of lagoons and wildlife, sand dunes and woods, had existed less than forty years. No less important than one existing a little less than four hundred years (Roanoke) was town incorporated the year prior, though. The author proved its lack of gaudiness, found in other resort towns, offered Southern Shores equitable allure to vacationers and NC residents alike.
