Thomas Guay has degrees in history and communications from the University of Maryland and became a journalist because he enjoys writing and telling stories. After a career as a Capitol Hill reporter covering current events (tomorrow's history), he refocused on colonial history and started researching what became this book, working as a host at the Charles Carrol House in Annapolis, as a reenactor and tour guide at other historic colonial houses, and researching the plight of indentured servants, the Peggy Stewart, and other tax-related uprisings in the Chesapeake Bay region. He lives in Annapolis, Maryland, and plays traditional fiddle tunes with the popular music group Them Eastport Oysterboys.
