In The Beginning Opie's Story - All About The Palatines (Paperback)

There has been a great deal of information and misinformation about the Palatines and why they came to America. It is a complicated story but one that begs to be told, and it will be told in story form which will make it a more personal sort of story. After all, history involves real people, and we often lose sight of this fact. Opie's story begins with her early life and it is about a little girl who simply refused to give up and let her life happen. She became a servant for the Reverend Kocherthal, the parson who invented the legend of Carolina and then led his tribe into the wilderness to fulfill his dream. Nothing is as it seems, not in regards to Carolina at least. The stage is set for the eventful trip and terrible trials of this incredible adventure.
