The Indigo Girl by Natasha Boyd

4.0

---

This was a well written work of historical fiction. Set in South Carolina well before the revolution, a young girl set about to grow indigo in order to harvest the plants and make the distinctive dye. It was very interesting, and I especially appreciated the historical facts including a slave uprising, trade in the colonies, as well as the treatment of women during this era.
