- Synopsis
- The Indians called it Kan-Ta-Ke ("Beautiful Meadow" but to the pioneers who made their way to Kentucky over the Wilderness Road in the 1770s it was "The Dark and Bloody Ground" where American patriots still fought for their lives against redcoats and their savage allies thirteen years after the British surrender. Among these brave venturers were: Joe Floyd: At twenty, a giant of a man, fleeing the terrible consequences of his own strength, searching for a new life and love. ... Two Hearts: A "white Indian", captive of the Shawnee since childhood, torn between two worlds, honor-bound to war against the man she loves. ... Margaret Floyd: Gallant and beautiful, she fought side-by-side with her men against the wilderness--living in terror of the forbidden passion that raged within. ... Corn Burner: Treacherous chief of the Shawnee, sworn to have Two Hearts in his tent--and Joe Floyd's scalp on his belt...
