Scotland County
Book (italiano):
With edges along the Carolina border and the Lumber<br><br>River, Scotland County boasts features reminiscent<br><br>of the country for which it was named. But the county has<br><br>held fast to much more than kilts and bagpipes; its Scottish<br><br>heritage is entwined with aspects of other cultures to produce<br><br>a rich palate of local history, stories, and legends. Although<br><br>a relatively young county, having been formed in 1899 from<br><br>Richmond County, the land has been inhabited for centuries<br><br>and maybe longer. Several writers believe that when North<br><br>Carolina became a royal colony in 1729, Scottish Highlanders<br><br>were already living in the area.<br><br>Scotland County serves as a testimony to the lives and<br><br>experiences of county residents, past and present. Local heroes,<br><br>important streets, businesses, schools, and churches, which have<br><br>all helped to shape the county's identity, come to life through<br><br>word and image within the pages of this volume. Longtime<br><br>residents and newcomers alike are sure to find themselves<br><br>captivated by the photographs and accompanying captions that<br><br>celebrate the county's coming of age.
