"Telling a more inclusive story than many studies of the late-colonial piedmont, [this book] point to the importance of Indian-white conflicts in shaping both the geography of local communities and the mentality of white settlers. Through this volume Moore relocates the origins of southernness to an earlier period, arguing that commercial agriculture, slavery, and evangelical religion took hold in the upcountry immediately after the Revolution, long before the arrival of cotton culture." -- dj flaps.
