More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the American Revolution, the Regulator Rebellion of 1766-71 highlights a struggle for economic independence and political liberty among backcountry settlers in North Carolina. Fueled by religious fervor from the Great Awakening, thousands of farmers clashed with political elites over proposed reforms. The conflict reached its peak on May 16, 1771, when a colonial militia defeated over 2,000 armed farmers, leading to severe repercussions, including forced allegiance oaths and executions.
