Challenging views of the Carolina frontier as an undeveloped colonial backwater until cotton planters came to the region in 1800, Moore (history, Texas A&M U.-Corpus Christi) presents a case study of a predominantly Irish-Scottish settlement in the lower Catawa River Valley (shown on maps). He argues that forces such as settler-Indian conflicts, population growth, religious culture wars, and developing markets for wheat and slaves transformed the former home of the Waxhaw Indians earlier and more profoundly than planters and land speculators.
