Earley, Lawrence S.

Abstract:

The fall line is an East Coast geological feature that marks the boundary between the Piedmont and the coastal plain. A true fall line prevented navigation upstream. Earley seeks to answer the questions of what a fall line in North Carolina is exactly and where it is.
