Old Salem is a restored 18th- and 19th-century village that is frequently compared to Colonial Williamsburg. Within two dozen blocks are over 90 restored and reconstructed buildings, including several that are open to the public as museums.Moravians, members of an early Protestant sect called the Unity of Brethren, derived their name from their homeland, Moravia, now part of the Czech Republic. Persecuted for centuries in their own land, the Moravians emigrated to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in 1740. Thirteen years later, they bought a 100,000-acre tract in the Carolina wilderness, which they called Wachovia. Salem, which was founded in this wilderness in 1766, became Wachovia's principal town. Today, the restored village stands near the downtown area of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.Walter Stone's pen-and-ink illustrations bring the Old Salem structures to life. Each of these illustrations is accompanied by a narrative that explains the structure's history. The illustrations and commentary combine to take the reader on a tour of one of North Carolina's most popular tourist destinations.

Download The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A spellbinding, beautifully written novel that moves between contemporary times and one of the most fascinating and disturbing periods in American history - the Salem witch trials. Harvard graduate student Connie Goodwin needs to spend her summer doing research for her doctoral dissertation. But when her mother asks her to handle the sale of Connie's grandmother's abandoned home near Salem, she can't refuse. As she is drawn deeper into the mysteries of the family house, Connie discovers an ancient key within a seventeenth-century Bible. The key contains a yellowing fragment of parchment with a name written upon it: Deliverance Dane. This discovery launches Connie on a quest-to find out who this woman was and to unearth a rare artifact of singular power: a physick book, its pages a secret repository for lost knowledge. As the pieces of Deliverance's harrowing story begin to fall into place, Connie is haunted by visions of the long-ago witch trials, and she begins to fear that she is more tied to Salem's dark past then she could have ever imagined. Written with astonishing conviction and grace, The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane travels seamlessly between the witch trials of the 1690s and a modern woman's story of mystery, intrigue, and revelation.
