| The Flaming
Ship of Ocracoke & Other Tales of the Outer Banks, Charles
Harry Whedbee, 1971, line art, 153 pp. $11.95 HB |
 |
| Every September, on the first night of the new moon, a
flaming ship blazes past the coast of Ocracoke. No matter what the wind, she moves swiftly
along her course, an unearthly wailing rising from her hold. Great tales from North
Carolina's historic coastland like the British naval officer buried upright--eternally at
attention, or a blasphemous supper party with a bloody aftermath. |
