In 1868, Wilsonville was a farming community located east of a tributary of the Greater Miami River in Western Ohio. Most of the surrounding countryside was nothing more than a patchwork of small homesteads; the folks there worked long hours to produce enough food for their families.

This is the story of one young man’s perilous journey into adulthood. His life takes him halfway around the world and back. Buck is forced to become a man before his time. He lived in a time when a few rugged men still lived by their own set of rules, governed not by Eastern laws but by their savage surroundings. Death was their constant companion. Their end could come at any moment, caused by the slightest mistake or hesitation to act.
