Synopsis
The natural light photography of Bruce Roberts is well known to the readers of Southern Living and Our State magazines. In Just Yesterday, 191 black-and-white and color photographs strike a chord of memory in all who consider North Carolina to be their home. Roberts's unique perspective records fascinating images of lighthouses and coastal scenes, farm workers toiling on family farms in the eastern Sand Hills, the Civil Rights movement and explosive urban growth in the Piedmont, and both the natural beauty of western mountains and the quiet dignity of that region s people. Commentaries by Bruce Roberts enhance the reader s experience of these timeless photographs.
Surveying all of North Carolina, the images are grouped by the state's four regions: the Outer Banks, the East, the Piedmont, and the Mountains.
