During the War Between the States, James McCormick, an
Irish-Catholic immigrant in Potsdam, New York, works for a carriage
manufacturer and wants to marry Annie Cutting, the boss's daughter.
Cutting hires James to take his place in the war, promising that
James and Annie can marry when James returns. The conflict between
the Irish-Catholic wheelwright and the upper class English-Anglican
Cuttings continues to develop as the story follows James in the
60th New York State Volunteer Regiment. Tensions build when it
appears Cutting will not keep his word, James becomes jealous of
another man, typhoid fever strikes James's regiment, and the
battles rage on. Can love survive one of the country's greatest
upheavals? The actual history of the 60th New York State Volunteer
Regiment and accounts of its battles at Antietam, Chancellorsville,
Gettysburg, and Lookout Mountain weave through the words of a
soldier from Company A in this wartime love saga.
