A young Etta Mae Dickerson is head strong and defiant as to what she wants, is betrayed in marriage, but regains her strenght and courage from her Grandmother Morning Star's counseling. The Irish Hutchisons arrive in Virginia hopeful for a new life from oppression. John Bellecourt embraces them as his family as they all suffer through the Civil War. Eventually they must escape the northern soldiers and find their way to neutral western Kentucky.
