When John Stafford, a young man from a wealthy Philadelphia family,
graduates from college in the 1860s, he ventures to the lawless
Northwest to satisfy his basic urge to put himself to the test in
meeting the challenges of a trying environment. Adventure is what
he seeks, and adventure is what he gets. Stafford experiences many
turbulent twists and turns in his life. He marries, Little Dove, a
beautiful Indian woman of Hidatsa descent. He is accepted into her
tribe following his ingenious strategy to defeat his wife's
wrathful Blackfeet suitor. And Stafford accepts a request by
President Abraham Lincoln to form a highly proficient clandestine
fighting force to help the Indians defend themselves against the
widespread tyranny. His skilled force consists of several relatives
and close friends-black as well as white, male and female, along
with a number of Native Americans. Their exploits involve
confrontations with river pirates, whisky peddlers, a tragic
massacre by unauthorized military action an Indian reprisal, and a
marauding gang of cutthroats.
