A small band of armed insurgents fell upon Quebec in the winter of
1775. They were sent north to liberate the Canadians, but they were
abandoned in the snow, denied reinforcements, and driven up the
river and out of Canada. The officers and men of the Separate Army
formed their brotherhood in the anguish of their defeat,
established their association following the joy of victory at
Saratoga, and by doing so, launched a pervasive culture and unique
lifestyle that flourished in their clubs and dominated the halls of
power in the state and nation unto the second and third generation.
This is a tale of the second generation, the generation that
followed the American Revolution. They lived in a time of
uncertainty and crisis; a time when men and women struggled against
convention to find out if a nation derived from deceit, created by
rebellion, and governed by greed could long survive. It's the story
of a young man with a desire for success and talent for trouble who
stumbles forth upon a quest for personal fame and glory in the
years of political intrigue, war, and conspiracy that marked the
beginning of the American Empire.
