Abstract:

Fish harvesting in the 1950s put Beaufort, North Carolina on the map, but when the industry collapsed town officials turned to historic preservation and tourism for economic stability. Beaufort's current mayor, Richard Stanley, discusses his past and present work to sustain tourism in the coastal town.
