Ribbon of Sand by John Alexander

The authors examine the lessons that North Carolina's Outer Banks have to teach anyone seeking to understand the natural and human dynamics of America's threatened barrier islands. Only in recent years have scientists begun to understand how the Banks were formed and how they continue to be shaped by an unusual confluence of ocean currents, wave action, winds, and sand. 27 maps and illustrations.
