You'll also find a complete list of UNC Press books about the coast, from nature, travel, and architectural guides to David Stick's popular histories and our favorite book for young adults, Taffy of Torpedo Junction.

Just a reminder: all books mentioned here are available at bookstores, including online booksellers. You can also order directly from UNC Press. Call 1-800-848-6224. Say you saw it on our website.
We hope this issue of News Bytes inspires you to head to the beach--for a day, a week, or a month. Have a great vacation, and don't forget to bring some beach reading!
