The narrative explores the journey of over 1,400 Minorcan immigrants who left Menorca in 1768 to work as indentured servants on Dr. Andrew Turnbull's indigo plantation in New Smyrna, Florida. After enduring years of labor, they sought freedom and walked 70 miles to St. Augustine in 1777. The book highlights their enduring cultural legacy and contributions to the community, emphasizing resilience and the rich heritage that persists in Florida today.
