Summary

"This is the story of how a remarkable group of community leaders, professors, administrators and students founded, built and developed the flourishing institution that is Coastal Carolina University. Roy Talbert, Jr. ... has written a lively narrative account describing the first 50 years of this university's bold journey, from its conception to its maturity. Based on his comprehensive research, including archival exploration and interviews with many key people who were present at the creation, Talbert's approach encompasses the personalities of individuals as well as the social and political background of the times."--Front flap of jacket
