Abstract:
Nestled in the heart of tobacco country is the nation's largest cigarette manufacturer, 92-year-old R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. Reynolds dates to 1875 when 24-year-old Richard Joshua Reynolds left his father's tobacco farm and went to Winston to set up his own tobacco business. By 1913, Reynolds controlled one-fourth of the plug tobacco business in the United States and had begun producing smoking tobacco as well, introducing the Prince Albert brand of pipe and cigarette tobacco in 1907.

Abstract:
Scattered around the state in public libraries are sets of an unusual work, THE NORTH CAROLINA BOOKLET. It was first published in 1901, and for nearly a quarter century the periodical fulfilled its goal of presenting \"Great Events in North Carolina History.\" At the time it was founded by the North Carolina Society of the Daughters of the Revolution, the State Historical Society had not been established, and there was no media responsible for the regular and systematic publication of North Carolina historical material.
