Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Historic Architecture of Johnston County highlights a diverse array of buildings and structures in one of North Carolina's fastest growing counties. Nestled between Raleigh and Goldsboro along the fall line that separates Coastal Plain and Piedmont, Johnston is known for its fascinating personalities, its close-knit small towns and rural communities, and its long-held status as a leading agricultural county. An influx of newcomers to the western half of the county since the late 1980s has transformed much of the rural landscape, but farming is still alive and well in the eastern sections where extensive development has yet to occur. Buildings such as those featured in these pages provide vital, irreplaceable connections to a cherished past and rural way of life that is ever-changing.
