Before the American Revolution, there was Alamance.
Twelve-year-old Tom Weaver never planned to take sides. But when his family; and his neighbors; are caught between corrupt court officials and a growing protest movement called the Regulators, Tom is forced to see his world differently.
As unfair taxes rise and farms are seized, Tom watches ordinary people stand up for justice in a way no one expects. Petitions turn into protests. Protests turn into punishment. And soon, Tom finds himself carrying messages, witnessing history, and learning that silence can be just as powerful as action.
When Governor Tryon's soldiers march toward Alamance Creek, Tom must decide what it means to do what's right; even when the cost is high.
Based on real events, Voices from the Backcountry brings the little-known Regulator Movement to life through the eyes of a boy who learns that history isn't only made by famous names, but by people brave enough to speak when it matters most.
Perfect for readers ages 8-12 who enjoy historical fiction, this gripping novel explores fairness, courage, and the voices that helped shape a nation; before it was even born.
