The book is a real-life story told through the eyes of Adam and Nana, his grandmother, which knits together Adam's adventure, history, and writing the book. They really want to bring history to life and see "What is what, who is who, and how one thing leads to another" and research leads them on seven journeys around New Bern and North Carolina's inner and outer banks. Sharp attacks on the character of New Bern's founder, Baron Christopher de Graffenried, by those who blamed him for what they thought he should have done, is at the heart of their quest to discover the truth. Their research unravels those attacks until they disappear, revealing a "rascally gang" and their land swindle. Other true stories about what happened, not often found in history books, might leave long-time residents thinking they don't know New Bern's history as well as they thought they did.
