A Nutshell History of North Carolina
Autor Ben Fortsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – aug 2016
From its dubious beginnings as a pirate-filled colony to a popular tourist destination, North Carolina has an amazingly colorful history.
Author and illustrator Ben Fortson presents that history in the form of off-the-wall anecdotes, poignant insights and sublimely silly illustrations. Take a hilarious look at Daniel Boone's larger-than-life Carolina personality. Peruse an uproarious account of the Andrew Jackson birthplace controversy or politically astute commentary on the power of tobacco in the state. Fortson takes readers on a side-splitting and educational ride through the annals of Tar Heel State history.

Notă biografică
Ben Fortson writes and illustrates Almost Off the Record, a zanily clever history comic (almostoff.com), and has published several-books containing collections of his comics. Eager to expose the quirky and ridiculous plot lines of history, his most recent book, A Nutshell History of North Carolina, provides a rigorous and amusing portrait of his home state, complete with equally unorthodox illustrations. He lives in Black Mountain with his wife and three children.
