THE COVER
The waters of the Atlantic are nowhere more
treacherously capricious than along the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
This is particularly true of the region of Cape Hatteras where, for
unnumbered years, ships have tossed mercilessly ashore, buried in the
restless sands, disinterred, entombed again. Samuel O. Smart, Assistant
Landscape Architect, has caught with his air brush the spirit of
desolate helplessness which is the tragic lot of one of the sea's
rapidly disintegrating victims cast up on Chicamacomico Island, a part
of the area authorized for inclusion in the proposed Cape Hatteras
National Seashore.
