If you liked Johnny Depp dashing around tall-masted ships fighting off just about everyone, then you will enjoy the adventures of Blackbeard in Milton Ready's Oh Carolina!. He met his death in a blaze of pistols and slashing swords off the island of Ocracoke in 1714. Solomon Northrup in 12 Years a Slave? In Oh Carolina! you'll be introduced to Addam and Eve, a slave from Africa fighting for his freedom and his mulatto wife whose adventure rival that of Northrup and his family. The actor Daniel Day Lewis portrayed Hawkeye in The Last of the Mohicans, largely shot in North Carolina. In Oh Carolina!, you'll meet Tsongus, a Cherokee warrior chieftain who leads the most powerful tribe east of the Mississippi into a maelstrom of enemies both red and white. And then there's Juanita Plummer, left alone to run a large farm and preside over a household of indentured servants and freed and runaway slaves. Much like Abigail Adams, Juanita prospered in a highly patriarchal colonial society. Oh Carolina! is the story of that other eighteenth-century world that became a long shadow of our own.
