Book Description
There is a subtle but significant French heritage in North Carolina. Towns such as Bath, Beaufort, New Bern, and La Grange are testimony to the settlements of French Huguenots in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The city of Fayetteville is named after the Marquis de Lafayette, a French ally during the American Revolution. The first European explorers to the North Carolina region were, in fact, French (1524). French Huguenots migrated to the state as early as 1690 and many North Carolinians have last names of French origin. North Carolina has many other place names and remnants of French presence since the early colonial period. This book traces the historical presence of the French in NC from the state's origins to the present and tells the story of a little-known part of the state's cultural heritage.

Book Description
"Fred Layton, just graduated from Princeton, lands a job with the larger-than-life Nelson Albright, the East Coast's premier fine-print dealer. Nelson is the Boss from Hell, a man for whom the art takes a backseat to the deal. Under his boss's guidance, Fred learns the ropes: sweet-talking wealthy collectors, stealing clients from his colleagues, and outwitting other dealers. But when Fred discovers a valuable painting hidden within a 200-year-old book, he must decide where his loyalties lie - with the man who brought him into the business, or with the collector and ally who can help him escape from it. As he discovers, "original color" is more than a gauge of value for the art he sells; it is also a symbol for holding on to something true and meaningful in an age when money has taken precedence over everything else."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
