About this listen

 Dive into the gripping world of the Reconstruction era with The Leopards Spots, the first installment in a powerful trilogy that includes The Clansman and The Traitor. Set against the tumultuous backdrop of North Carolina, this novel delves into the intense social and racial conflicts of the time. As the Confederates wrestle with the challenges of rebuilding the war-torn South and confront the controversial race question, the story raises an enduring question can a leopard truly change its spots? Meet a cast of unforgettable characters, including the sinister Reconstruction leader Simon Legree, the hopeful young gentleman Charles Gaston, and the sweet-natured Sallie Worth, alongside a vibrant mix of preachers, carpetbaggers, scallywags, farmers, and newly freed African Americans. Join Michele T. Fry as she narrates this compelling tale of love, ambition, and the struggles for equality.
