Shell Castle, a late eighteenth-century plantation house in Halifax County, North Carolina, remained in the same family for two centuries. This book documents the plantation during the last days of Charles Whitaker, the last member of the family who built it. Additional photographs show the harm done by the new owners. The text and photographs are complemented by Catherine Bishir's essay, which places Shell Castle and its inhabitants in social and historical context.
