What do Sojourner Truth, Davy Crockett, Ichabod Crane, and a
Cherokee river dragon have in common? They are all characters in
John Hood’s second historical-fantasy novel, Forest
Folk.
John Hood is president of the John William Pope Foundation, a
Raleigh-based grantmaker that supports public policy organizations,
educational institutions, arts and cultural programs, and
humanitarian relief in North Carolina and beyond. He is also a
newspaper columnist, historian, and an author with a deep passion
for both the American Founding and speculative
fiction.
In this episode, John joins Garrett for his second time as a guest
of the podcast, to discuss his latest novel, Forest Folk, the
perfect recipie for blending folklore and early American History,
and ask the real Ichabod Crane to please
stand up.
All on this episode of Forgotten America.
