Gilbert Holmes tells his own story of the Mississippi Valley in the early 1830s, when river towns were harassed by outlaws and settlers pressed onto Sac and Fox land. A wreck, a hurricane and a sweet lady draw him into adventures that culminate in the Black Hawk War and an encounter with the Sac leader himself.
