The Newly Independent American Nation Beckons the Sons of Winslow West When Nathan Winslow fought to keep the hopes of the Continental Army alive at Valley Forge, he never dreamed that a rich and powerful nation would blossom from those thirteen struggling colonies. Nor did he foresee the consequences that the expanding nation would have on his own family. Now, years after the American Revolution, Nathan's two sons, Christmas and Knox, race west Knox hoping to be among the first to set up trading posts in Missouri, and Christmas seeking to escape a future he regarded with contempt. Christmas will journey toward what some considered to be the ultimate test, but in so doing he will leave an indelible mark on the family tree. Will He Be Cut Off From The One Treasure He Ever Wanted?

Set against American Revolutionary War, the story extends the Winslow genealogy through a specific phase of American or global history, using Christian conversion, family inheritance and romantic loyalty as its principal interpretive framework.
