Abstract:

The Great Storm of August 1899, and a follow-up one in October of the same year, drove residents of Core and Shackleford Banks from their homes forever. Many settled in Morehead City, Salter Path, and Harkers Island. Prioli recounts the history of these hardy people and how they used their native skills to survive.
