Every September, on the first night of the new moon, there are those who vow they see a flaming ship sail three times past the coast of Ocracoke. No matter the direction or velocity of the wind, this fiery vessel moves swiftly toward the northeast, they say, always accompanied by an eerie wailing sound. This story of this ship is but one of the colorful legends intrinsic to the charm of North Carolinas historic coastland." The spine is tight and straight. Approximate size, 5.25 x 7.75.
