North Carolina’s Blacklands Treasure<br />
By: Philip S. McMullan Jr.<br />
Bounded by the <strong>Albemarle</strong> Sound on the north and the Pamlico<br />
River on the south, the Blacklands of Northeastern North<br />

in the country. But throughout much of its history, this region<br />
- filled with murky swamps and impenetrable wilderness - has<br />
defeated many an adventurer trying to tame it.<br />
