The Paradox of Tar Heel Politics: The Personalities, Elections, and Events That Shaped Modern North Carolina
How can a state be represented by Jesse Helms and John Edwards at the same time? Journalist Rob Christensen answers that question and navigates a century of political history in North Carolina, one of the most vibrant and competitive southern states, where neither conservatives nor liberals, Democrats nor Republicans, have been able to rest easy. It is this climate of competition and challenge, Christensen argues, that enabled North Carolina to rise from poverty in the nineteenth century to become a leader in research, education, and banking in the twentieth. Although party divisions and the issues of race that often distinguish them are deeply rooted, Christensen explains, North Carolina voters remain loyal to candidates who focus on issues such as education and building a business-friendly infrastructure. He takes us to picket lines and debates and through numerous red-baiting and race-baiting political campaigns. Along the way we are introduced to many remarkable characters, including a U.S. senator who was a Nazi sympathizer, a candidate for governor who was a Soviet agent, a senator who helped bring down Joe McCarthy and Richard Nixon, and a TV commentator who helped usher in the Reagan Revolution. Long before the talk of red state-blue state polarization, North Carolina was an intensely divided state politically. With Christensen as a guide, readers may find there is sense after all in the topsy-turvy nature of Tar Heel politics..

Bear: Baiting & Trapping Black Bear
The black bear, truly, is the trapper's big game. From both firsthand experience, and interviews and field work with a number of Maine bear trappers, the author has put together the only solid information on this fascinating and challenging sport. Unique to Maine as a sport, the techniques outlined in this 86-page book are the same as those used in many states and provinces by nuisance control workers and biologists trapping and releasing live bear for studies. Just as the how-to-do trapping methods will give most first-time bear trappers a very high success rate, the baiting techniques have great value to those that use a rifle, handgun or bow and arrow to tag their bruin. "BEAR--Baiting & Trapping Black Bear" is a rare book on a unique pursuit. Find the flavor and heritage of the Maine woods. Order your copy now!.
