Abstract:

The North Carolina Literary and Historical Association (NCLHA) was established in 1900 to connect North Carolinians with their literature and history. At the 1936 annual meeting of NCLHA, Thomas Wolfe, arguably one of North Carolina's most famous writers, was slated to be the keynote speaker. Wolfe failed to deliver this speech, though unfortunate, still generated a great deal of attention for the meeting and NCLHA regardless of his attendance.
