robbers. Andrew is badly wounded and hides in some brush until
daylight. A group of Cherokee Indians on a hunting party finds him
close to death. They save him and bring him to their village.
Andrew joins the Texas Army as a scout. His new wife, Say-te-Qua,
and his love for his family make him determined to protect his home
from raids by the Mexican army. Follow Andrew as his journey leads
him into the heat of the San Jacinto battle and on the quest for
Texas independence.
