Narrative nonfiction typically features storytelling techniques to present factual information in a compelling and engaging manner. It often includes personal anecdotes, character development, and a narrative structure, which sets it apart from more straightforward informational or expository nonfiction that is focused solely on conveying facts and analysis without narrative elements.

Hello! How can I assist you today?
What was the backcountry and what was life like there?
The backcountry refers to the rural or remote areas that were away from the established settlements or urban centers in earlier times. Life in the backcountry was often characterized by self-reliance, isolation, and a close relationship with nature. People living there would typically engage in subsistence farming or hunting, and their lives were shaped by the challenges of frontier living, such as limited access to goods, services, and communication networks.
What were slave codes?
Slave codes were laws enacted in the Southern United States during the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries that defined the rights and restrictions placed on enslaved individuals. These codes varied from state to state but typically aimed to regulate and control the behavior, movements, and treatment of slaves. They limited their legal rights, prohibited literacy, restricted their ability to gather or socialize, and established severe punishments for any attempts to escape or rebel against their masters. Slave codes were a crucial part of the system of institutionalized slavery in the United States.
