Author Natasha Boyd Brings to Life the Little Known Story of 18th Century Southern Heroine Eliza Lucas Pinckney in "The Indigo Girl" on Charlotte Readers Podcast
In this Under the Covers episode, we visit with Natasha Boyd, author of “The Indigo Girl,” the true and riveting story of Eliza Lucas Pinckney, a woman ahead of her time and mother of one of the United States’ founding fathers.
So influential was she in the formation of the nation that President George Washington, at his own request, served as a pallbearer at her funeral.
The New York Journal of Books calls the book “an outstanding work of fiction that introduces a historical figure with whom few will have heard of, but who played a vital role in the economic history of the colony of South Carolina … Natasha Boyd incorporates the social issues of racial inequality, lack of women’s rights, and class distinctions into a story of one of America’s most remarkable women.”
