Concord

Meer over het boek

The book details the founding of Concord, North Carolina, through the efforts of state legislator Stephen Cabarrus, who mediated between Scotch-Irish and German settlers. Established in 1796, Concord evolved from an agricultural hub into a textile powerhouse, fueled by the region's rich cotton production. By the early 1900s, this prosperity sparked an architectural renaissance, leaving a legacy of historic buildings. Today, while the textile industry has faded, Concord thrives as a motorsports center and hosts the popular Concord Mills shopping mall.
