Focusing on South Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama, the book explores how different systems of justice and violence functioned in the region during the colonial and early national periods. Nooe examines how white southerners remembered and narrated these interactions, and how these narratives influenced the development of regional identity in the antebellum period and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
