North Carolina describes life in the early colony, including the
many conflicts with Native Americans, disease, the presence of
pirates, the use of timber and tar in shipbuilding (which
contributed to the state's nickname ""The Tar Heel State""), and
the history of slavery in the colony. It examines the early
explorers, the growth of European nation-states, and the American
Indian civilizations that existed before the Europeans arrived, as
well as the first settlements in North Carolina - from the first
English colonies in Virginia to the creation of North Carolina. The
book ends with coverage of the battles and events of the
Revolutionary War, such as the Battle of Lexington and Concord, as
well as North Carolina's pivotal role in forming the federal
constitution (after demanding a Bill of Rights) and its place as
the twelfth state to ratify it.
