"Alice Hoffman Queen of Bogue Banks" is the unbelievable historical account of a too-large-for-life woman who decides to forge her own way in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Hoffman’s adventure centers around a clash of cultures, a legal battle in a small Southern courthouse, and a decades’ long contention between two completely different societies Hoffman’s high society of New York and the fishing communities of Bogue Banks, North Carolina.
- How did a New York City socialite drastically change a small NC fishing village?
- Why did a small Eastern North Carolina county sue President Theodore Roosevelt’s grandchildren?
- How long does it take to lose freedom and a way of life? And what happens when it is lost?
Kathleen Guthrie has uncovered a can’t-miss story for the ages and collected it in a well-researched account of a true American original.

Alice Hoffman Queen of Bogue Banks eBook Kathleen McMillan Guthrie Reviews

We visited Salter Path about 20 years ago and it holds a special place in our hearts. The story is gut wrenching and all too typical of life in America today. Superbly written by a very special lady.
Excellent read. Every time I visit Downeast I try to find a book like this. Not disappointed at all. Bought my copy at the checkout counter of the CrabShack on the island. Not your usual happy story about regional dialects and local remedies. Goes deep into property issues, local relationships with outsiders, Salter Path sense of home & family. I suppose it might be considered a serious and unexpectedly compassionate counterpoint to the 'Year En Provence' kind of beach read. Of course there's much more. And the subject matter is more about the namesake of the title. On the whole it told me a real story about real people and real things. Worth every penny.
A scholarly book, well researched and written. A story of a clash of cultures - of "gown" versus "village". A book with a larger message about what happens when divergent cultures clash and fail to find common ground. And finally, a work that gives perspective on the need for better preservation of the NC coastal environment. Specifically, on how a 21 mile long North Carolina barrier island was transformed from its near pristine state in the 1920's to the very densely summer beach haven it is today.
This is not what I thought it was. I was looking for the author Alice hoffman.
