Description

What does it cost to stay loyal when a world is breaking apart? Historian Greg Brooking  explores the life and legacy of Sir James Wright, Georgia’s last royal governor, and the turbulent path from Crown colony to revolutionary state in his new book, From Empire to Revolution:  Sir James Wright and the Price of Loyalty in Georgia. In this conversation he digs into loyalty and dissent, political power and personal risk, and how events in the southern colonies reshaped the course of the American Revolution. Join us for a sharp, story-rich look at Georgia’s revolution—and the people who gambled everything on their principles.
