| A story of the early South, debtors prisons and the stocks, tobacco burnings and uprising, ribald backwood taverns and lush plantations. Virginia in 1730 is a little-known epoch in American history, made vivid in a full-bodied novel of romance and adventure—the story of the burning conflict between the wealthy Colonial landowners, unscrupulous in their lust for power, and the small frontier planters who fought with their backs to the wall to hold their place on the soil. |
