Join local history buff, genealogy researcher, and keeper of lost things Robin Holt for a reading from her book “My Daily Bounded Realm: A Journal of Daily Life in the Outer Banks in 1900” and a discussion about life on the Outer Banks at the turn of the 20th century. A book signing in the lobby will conclude the talk.
Robin Daniels Holt has deep roots as the ninth generation of the Daniels family of Wanchese on Roanoke Island. She is also the 12th generation in the Midgett family from Hatteras Island whose history with the US Life-Saving Service and the US Coast Guard is legendary.
