Author: Turk McCleskey. Living with him was his white, Scottish wife, and in a twist that will surprise the modern reader, Tarr’s neighbours accepted his interracial marriage. Contradicting the popular view of settlers in southern Virginia as poor, violent, and transient, this book--with its pathbreaking research and gripping narrative--radically rewrites the history of the colonial backcountry, revealing it to be made up largely of close-knit, rigorously governed communities.
