In Civil War times… The son of a Cherokee mother and a Scotch-Irish father, River Hunter’s father disappears on a trapping trip into the mountains of the Carolinas and after a lengthy absence is presumed to be dead. River Hunter’s mother gathers her children and they move to the Black Belt of Alabama to avoid being shipped west by President Jackson during the Removal time for Native Americans. River adapts rapidly to the new life and has an insatiable appetite for knowledge, reading books at every opportunity. In time he obtains a formal education at recognized academies and universities. Following his heroic service in the Confederate Army during the Civil War and schooling at one of the Nation’s most prestigious Law Schools, River becomes an attorney. He is then betrothed to a beautiful young woman who has inherited a substantial plantation upon the death of her husband in the War. Many problems plague the young couple from the forces existing in the South after the War to the prejudicial attitudes of River’s inlaws to the polarized politics between the newly freed Slaves and their former White Masters.
