A story of choices...Edward searches for approval and love from an autocratic father and release from the family distillery. Edward's friendship with Patrick, a Scots-Irish maverick, is threatened when they face a future seemingly destined to be embroiled by war.

A story of conscience...Edward feels bound by a vow to Katie to honor her belief as the War Between the States escalates into a bloody conflict and threatens to tear apart the nation and his home. Patrick finds he must choose between respect and disdain for his lifelong friend. Katie struggles to remain true to her beliefs while the battle at Gettysburg rages on her doorstep.
