Summary
Based on extensive research into the racial mixing that occurred in the early years of southeastern settlement, this provocative story shows that these people did not simply vanish, but that many were absorbed into the new communities that gradually formed throughout the southeast, becoming "white" whenever their complexions allowed. The inability to accept their true heritages illustrates the high price many of these people paid for their way of life
