America turns 250.
Let's go find the candles.
Looking for a history lesson that doesn't feel like homework? You've found it. At 250history.com, the Semiquincentennial Series brings each state's distinctive landmarks to center stage to tell their fast and fun story.
We've wandered through big cities, tiny towns, muddy trails, and neon-lit highways-uncovering 5,000 historic gems along the way.
The Semiquincentennial isn't just a mouthful-it's a reminder that history is alive, sometimes weird, and always waiting to be rediscovered.
Whether you're traveling by road, by printed page, or by imagination; whether you are a lifelong native or visiting for a week, we invite you to explore 100 North Carolina landmarks that illuminate the one-of-a-kind story of the Old North State.
Moravian souvenirs... college sports... gold rushes... the "Poet of the People"... iron horses... kissing bridges... Hollywood producers... roadside architecture... beloved carbonated beverages... iconic dams... the CCC... general stores... historic stages... auto racing... carousels... diners... the golden age of motoring... kit houses... master potters... minor league baseball... civil rights... barbecue...early aviation... bucket list golf... Sears kit houses... the rise of suburbia... This book will have you telling stories like a native in no time.
The photos and stories collected here are a fast and fun way to learn the explanations behind the quirks, the traditions and the secrets that make North Carolina uniquely North Carolina. What was the steepest mainline railroad line in America? Solved. What building ignited North Carolina's rise to the "Hollywood of the East"? A mystery no more. The first public park built in North Carolina? Identified. The second smallest post office in America? Revealed.
It is a story only North Carolina can call its own. A story told in 100 landmarks. Almost all the selections within are open to the public, or a t least visible from public spaces. So, fire up the GPS and see the story of the Old North State standing in plain sight on North Carolina streets!
