Abstract:

U.S. Highway 64, which stretches 613.69 miles across North Carolina from Manteo to Murphy, didn't exist until 1932. It begins at Whalebone on the Outer Banks (elevation: 9 feet) and reaches its highest level at Highlands (elevation: 4,118 feet). In between these points travelers find the essence of the state -- its history, crafts, food, scenery, and people.
