Tour the Old North State's famous--and not-so-famous--historic
sites.
First in Freedom, First in Flight, and First, Farthest and Last are all
honorifics that have been used to describe North Carolina's well-known
history. Learn the truth behind each of these epithets and other tales
from the sands of the Outer Banks to the bustling cities of the Piedmont
and the western mountains. Tour the state's famous historic homes,
gardens and cemeteries. Dive deep into its military conflicts, from the
golden age of piracy to the Second World War.
Join North Carolina's veteran historian, Michael C. Hardy, for an
exploration of the many sites, monuments, museums, and public spaces
that tell story of North Carolina's history.
