America’s first populist rebellion sweeps a young apprentice from England into a maelstrom in seventeenth-century Virginia. John Cleburne is an apprentice for a furniture craftsman in Bristol, England who seeks a better life in Virginia. A long voyage across the Atlantic Ocean ends in a shipwreck on the North Carolina coast and a difficult overland journey to Jamestown. Here the apprentices soon become indentured servants and begin the backbreaking work of tobacco farming in a formidable frontier surrounded by native tribes, both friendly and unfriendly. They right away become acquainted with the Royal Governor's corrupt administration and the brewing revolt among the colonists resentful of the favoritism and dishonesty threatening the colony’s existence.
