Pioneers, Patriots and Planters is a book about the history of the settlement of the South, which describes the immigration of a group of English pioneers including the Woolfolk family into Colonial Virginia and their journeys to settle the uncharted territories of Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. The book provides a unique approach to Southern history by combining a carefully-documented presentation of events taken from actual records of the history of the Woolfolk family, revealing insight into the personality and values of their ancestors, through the social-historical context within which the events occurred. The account yields a new understanding of the events leading to the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, the interaction of the cotton, tobacco, and slavery, and the plantation life of the early pioneers and patriots.
Out of this group of pioneers arose the leaders of the colonies including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Zachary Taylor, James Madison, Andrew Jackson, Meriwether Lewis, and Robert E. Lee, both friends, neighbors, and in many cases family of the Woolfolks. The book gives an across-the- fence view of the early events of American History.
Any family that arrived in America in the 1600 & 1700's will have had a similiar experience as this pioneer family. This book should be a must for any family member or historian to learn about the settlement of the South, from an over the fence view...
