Ruark was a Tarheel, born in Wilmington, NC. Over at Southport, just across the Cape Fear River from Wilmington, one of his boyhood homes has been converted into a Bed & Breakfast place.
I've never read these two books, but I've heard great things about them; Massad Ayoob, among others, thinks highly of them. Looks like over 600 pages of nostalgia for forgotten America here. Wish it was available in Kindle form.
