The Indigo Girl by Natasha Boyd
3.0

This is a compelling historical fiction novel about Eliza Lucas, a young girl who changed agriculture in South Carolina in the 1730s when she gambled on indigo as a cash crop. Until her younger brother came of age, Eliza was tasked with running her father's plantations while he saw to the family's assets in Antigua. By bucking convention, she faced opposition and even betrayal. This is yet another intriguing bit of US history I was unaware of.
