The Legend of James Jack - Paperback
by Zachary J. Allen (Author)
When an express rider from Massachusetts arrives in the small backcountry town of Charlotte, he brings with him word that the British Army has made battle with the colonists in Lexington and Concord. Enraged, frightened, and emboldened by the news, the fiery Scots-Irish frontiersman of Mecklenburg County decide to go further than any of their peers on the continent and declare independence. Into the early hours of Saturday, May 20th, 1775, officers in the county put to paper their rebellious spirit, and born from their fury is America's very first declaration of independence. When the meeting chairman decides that the declaration must be brought before the North Carolina delegates in Philadelphia, one man volunteers to carry the treasonous document: local tavern owner, James Jack. With his trusty steed to join, and a single loose bag for safekeeping, James Jack leaves his home to embark on a 550-mile journey fraught with soldiers, spies, and thieves; a journey that will see him become Charlotte's greatest hero, and indeed, one of America's unsung legends.
