About this product
Product Information
A vivid and moving novel based on the incredible life of real estate magnate Josephine N. Leary--a previously untold story of passion, perseverance, and building a legacy after emancipation in North Carolina. Josephine N. Leary is determined to build a life of her own and a future for her family. When she moves to Edenton, North Carolina from the plantation where she was born, she is free, newly married, and ready to follow her dreams. As the demands of life pull Josephine's attention--deepening her marriage, mothering her daughters, supporting her grandmother--she struggles to balance her real estate aspirations with the realities of keeping life going every day. She teaches herself to be a business woman, to manage her finances, and to make smart investments in the local real estate market. But with each passing year, it grows more and more difficult to focus on building her legacy from the ground up. Moving and inspiring, Josephine Leary's untold story speaks to the part of us that dares to dream bigger, tear down whatever stands in our way, and build something better for the loved ones we leave behind.

Reviews
"A necessary addition to the literature on post-Civil War life for freed Black men and women, and a critical reminder of the power of the freedom to dream." -- Bookreporter, "Based on the life of the awe-inspiring Josephine N. Leary, Kianna Alexander's Carolina Built tells the previously untold story of the real estate luminary's climb to freedom. Readers are invited to follow Leary after emancipation in North Carolina as she chases her dreams and equips herself with the tools she needs to be a successful businesswoman in real estate. Building a legacy becomes challenging amidst maintaining a marriage and caring for her daughters, but she pushes forward against all odds -- as Black women remarkably do." -- Refinery29, " Carolina Built is an integral addition to a part of our history that omits the accomplishments of Black women. Filled with passion and perseverance, Josephine Leary is frankly a woman that everyone should know." --Sadeqa Johnson, International bestselling author of Yellow Wife
