Dr. Marjoleine Kars delves deeply into the world and ideology of free rural colonists. She examines the rebellion’s economic, religious, and political roots and explores its legacy in North Carolina and beyond. The compelling story of the Regulator Rebellion reveals just how sharply elite and popular notions of independence differed on the eve of the Revolution.
Marjoleine Kars is associate professor of history at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. She is a senior editor and has received fellowships from The National Endowment for the Humanities, the American Historical Association, the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, the American Philosophical Society, the John Carter Brown Library, the European University Institute, the Huntington Library, and UMBC.
