Revolutionary History of North Carolina in Three Lectures
This is an image of the title page to the book Revolutionary North Carolina in Three Lectures, written by Fancis L. Hawks, David L. Swain, and William A. Graham, published in 1853. The publication includes a chapter on the history of the Regulators, the Battle of Alamance and the War of Regulation. The writers included excerpts of the writings of Herman Husband. Husband is often considered the pamphleteer of the Regulator movement. He was a legislator, planter, surveyor, and social radical from Maryland who lived for some time in the area that is now Alamance County and Orange County, North Carolina.

Public Domain
Public Domain is a copyright term that is often used when talking about copyright for creative works. Under U.S. copyright law, individual items that are in the public domain are items that are no longer protected by copyright law. This means that you do not need to request permission to re-use, re-publish or even change a copy of the item. Items enter the public domain under U.S. copyright law for a number of reasons: the original copyright may have expired; the item was created by the U.S. Federal Government or other governmental entity that views the things it creates as in the public domain; the work was never protected by copyright for some other reason related to how it was produced (for example, it was a speech that wasn't written down or recorded); or the work doesn't have enough originality to make it eligible for copyright protection.
