Abstract:
An examination of the practice of looting and plundering stranded vessels, called \"wrecking,\" via the investigation of three incents between 1698 and 1750 on the Outer Banks, to provide insight into the behavior of the colonists who exploited the accidents as well as the attitudes and capacities of the governing authorities charged with upholding royal laws, maintaining order, and punishing lawbreakers.
