The Indigo Girl by Natasha Boyd is a book I really enjoyed about a young teenaged girl who lives in the early 1700s in South Carolina. She is running her father's plantations while he is fighting the Spanish for the English crown and decides they need a new cash crop. She chooses to pursue growing and producing indigo even though others say it can be done. After several false starts she is successful. A true historical figure in South Carolina's history is really brought to life in this historical novel.
