The American Frontier, 1798: Set in the remote regions of North Carolina, Tennessee, and Missouri in the years after the Revolutionary War, Dogwood Crossing tells the story of Sam Rolens and his family, as they journey west to find land and prosperity in the French Creole Territory. At home, they were tenant farmers working for a scrap of pay. Now they travel through an exotic new world few people have seen before, stark, stunning, and incomprehensively beautiful, but full of mystery and dark possibility. Together with their uncle, the stoic frontiersman Burl, they cross Avery's Trace and contend with the elements, attacks from the displaced natives, and the omnipresent threat of time and its passing. Upon reaching a new home in the wilds of the French Territory west of the Mississippi River, new challenges threaten the family, conflicts with each other and their different dreams, tensions with the rich mining interests that would stand in their way. It is a struggle born of hope, enacted in an implacable and violent wilderness.
