Caption/Description

Carolinas Peyton was kidnapped by Chesapeake watermen, and took a journey from Virginia's Rosier Creek on the lower Potomac that took him around the world. He came home more than fifty years ago and has been farming the same way ever since. He teaches his great-grandsons all about a way of life that has mostly disappeared from the Potomac's banks.
