In 1847, the McCord family, filled with hope for prospects of a better life, packed all their earthly belongings into covered wagons and left their homes in Indiana for Texas.

It is a tale set in early America inspired by the journey of a girl coming of age amidst the perils of settling in a new and untamed land.
