Klappentext

Much has been made of the Highwaymen—the loosely knit band of African American painters whose edenic Florida landscapes "shaped the state's popular image as much as oranges and alligators” (New York Times). But lost in the legends surrounding the group is the mesmerizing story of Mary Ann Carroll, the only female "Highwayman”. This is the never-before-told story of a black female artist's hard-fought journey to feed her family and make a name for herself in a man's world.
