The most comprehensive state project of its kind, the Dictionary provides information on some 4,000 notable North Carolinians whose accomplishments and occasional misdeeds span four centuries. Much of the bibliographic information found in the six volumes has been compiled for the first time. All of the persons included are deceased. They are native North Carolinians, no matter where they made the contributions for which they are noted, or non-natives whose contributions were made in North Carolina.

It was a time of uncertainty and darkness. Feudal England was caught between bloody crusades, and corrupt nobility. No one could predict that an outlaw would be the one to bring a spark of hope to the people of a small region in England. He wished neither fame nor wealth like some outlaws, but his deeds of courage and chivalry would become known throughout the world, as would his name. Nobility called him a wolf's-head. Serfs called him a hero. Historians called him a myth. Legend would know him as Robin Hood.
