Synopsis

Drew Rennie, served as a cavalry scout in Confederate general John Hunt Morgans command. He had left home in 1862 after a final break with his harsh grandfather, who despised him since his birth because of his mothers runaway marriage to a Texan. During the final year of conflict Drew has the additional responsibility of looking out for his headstrong fifteen-year-old cousin Boyd, who has run away from home to join Morgans command and has a lot to learn in the school of hard knocks the army provides. The story follows the two of them and a new friend, Anson Kirby, through campaigns in Kentucky, Tennessee and later on deeper into the South, first with Morgan and later under Forrest.
