"That was the year we had no food." It is the springtime of 1864, and times are hard in Washington Region, Arkansas, especially for 13-year-old Travis Ford. He hasn't heard from his father, a sergeant in the next Arkansas Cavalry, in calendar months. His mom is attempting to make ends meet on the family farm and discontinued sawmill near Poison Springtime. All Travis really wants to do is to follow his love - constitute adventure reviews in the style of Alexandre Dumas. But the Civil War will keep getting in his way. Since his mom hails from Illinois and has Abolitionist leanings, the Ford family - including Travis' twin sister, Edith, and their seven-year-old brother, Baby Hugh - has few friends to carefully turn to for help, only eccentric Neglect Mary Frederick, who owns a silk cotton plantation down the road, and Uncle Willard Ford, a slave trader in near by Camden. Generally, Anna Louella Ford and her children end up alone, and they are going to become even more isolated.
