Yankee Gold is the tale of a post-Civil War chase through the defeated South, across war-torn Alabama, burned Mississippi, and a reeling Louisiana, and lastly into a defiant Tx for a climactic shootout where the hunted becomes the hunter. Travis Ford, a beaten and tortured Confederate soldier is condemned to hang for war crimes against the Union Army. As a dispatch rider for Leader Jeff Davis, and an intermittent spy for the first choice of the Confederate causes, he's captured, lashed, and condemned to pass away. A daring get away from with a strongbox filled up with yellow metal, has Ford working for his life with Union soldiers on his trail at every turn. Sgt. Lyle Burdee, a cruel authoritarian that swore to bring Ford back, leads the Yankee patrol. It didn't matter to him if Ford resided or perished; his requests were clear: "Get Ford, and recreate the yellow metal." The old South is dead, burned, and in ruins, families shattered, and thousands of dead and maimed who'll never gain home. The new South is swamped with needy men, gangs of freed slaves not knowing where to go or how to proceed. Hordes of greedy carpetbaggers from the North descend on the South just like a plague of locusts devouring everything in their course, changing a once-proud people into subordinate subjects. Yankee Gold paints a captivating picture of a vanquished people in a time when the entire country was kept reeling from an extended and bloody war. Travis Ford is a quiet soft-spoken man that just wishes to come back home to his family and plantation. When he comes, he locates his wife dead, his little princess kidnapped, and his plantation destroyed.
