"From Time to Time in North Carolina" is a collection of 45 guest columns written by award-winning history author and storyteller Randell Jones and printed in the Winston-Salem Journal during the last two decades. He wrote to celebrate obscure anniversaries and little known heroes. And, when he found a current event so reminiscent of some prior incident, he wrote about intriguing and sometimes bothersome analogs from years gone by, remarkable parallels to current events. "I do not believe that history repeats itself," he says, "but human nature does, and so we find our collective decisions and actions and their attendant consequences quite often repeating themselves, from time to time. From his writings on the colonial period, the Revolutionary War, and the frontier era, he extracted stories from North Carolina's history to share with an inkling of insight from one age to another, from the past to the present, from time to time.
