Synopsis

As a young man growing up with the Sioux, Ross Chesnut had been haunted by a vision - a vision that he left his people to pursue. Ross's quest led him to the Oregon territory, where he met and married Philadelphia-born Marlette Brightwood. But her father's tragic death forced a separation of several years. Now Ross and Marlette are reunited in Independence, Missouri, to embark together on the long trek westward. Ross assumes leadership of a group of wagons, but is dismayed by the prejudice, selfishness, and petty jealousy he discovers amid his fellow travelers. From the very start, the wagon is beset by trouble . . .
