The Rev. Adam Scott was a Pentecostal Holiness minister born in Goldsboro, N.C., in 1890. He went on to become barbecue royalty. He was called a "barbecue artist" and the "Barbecue King" of Eastern North Carolina. In 1933, he threw a barbecue for Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt in the White House's Rose Garden, bless its dearly departed soul.

The thing that moved me most about Roy G. Taylor’s book Sharecroppers: The Way We Really Were is the way that that he remembered so many of the small things about a sharecropper’s life in eastern North Carolina.
