It is set forth by one of the most extraordinary men who ever sought out the wilderness--Charles Woodmason, an Anglican minister whose moral earnestness and savage indignation, combined with a vehement style, make him worthy of comparison with Swift. The book consists of his journal, selections from the sermons he preached to his Backcountry congregations, and the letters he wrote to influential people in Charleston and England describing life on the frontier and arguing the cause of the frontier people. Woodmason's pleas are fervent and moving; his narrative and descriptive style is colorful to a degree attained by few writers in Colonial America. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Woodmason\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807840351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807840351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Omohundro Institute and Unc Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/1969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.28w x 0.73d","brand":"Charles Woodmason","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43986695749887,"sku":"9780807840351","price":47.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6b747500-2785-41d0-80d1-0be9641d4dbb.jpg?v=1683284798","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-carolina-backcountry-on-the-charles-woodmason-9780807840351","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
