When we reflect on the American Revolution, the crucial role of the South is often overlooked. In this pre-recorded conversation, speakers Jacob Ross and Tawnya Waggle, both from the National Park Service, reflect on President Jimmy Carter’s historical fiction set during the Revolution in the southern states. The conversation connected the book to President Carter’s views of government, the oppression of enslaved African Americans and Native Americans, and the complexity of the Southern Campaign.
