On November 11, 1918, in a railroad car outside Compiegne, France, the guns on the Western Front fell silent and the first World War was declared over. Proclaimed by many historians as the Great War, or the War to End All Wars, the price to be paid for peace at the time was steep and left behind a horrific trail of suffering and death.

Soldiers returning home discovered much had changed since their deployment. Indeed, a different America awaited them. The nation was still reeling from the Spanish Flu, a flurry of racial riots and labor disputes punctuated civilian life, and the Great Depression caused profound economic collapse. A decade later, the Second World War would begin.

In the midst of such turbulence, runaway Henry Cameron finds a home at a remote Vermont horse farm. He soon discovers a true passion for working with horses and learning the craft of horsemanship from a retired calvary officer.

When the calvary officer passes away and bequeaths his entire estate to Henry, the young man is faced with rebuilding the horse farm. His efforts are sculpted by those in his life: a protective pair of caretakers, a wounded World War One soldier, a corrupt sheriff, a gifted horse trainer, and a bitter and revengeful uncle. Each would come to shape the destiny of the horseman Henry Cameron.
