Abstract:

Attracting the attentions of Northern transplants and North Carolina natives in equally copious measures is Dare County’s Manteo. Among its noted virtues of the coastal town are a thriving commercial fishing community, preservation of the town’s connection with the lost colony, and maritime heritage measured in its shipyards’ construction of Naval craft during WWII.
