Description:... Book Summary After the bloody battle of Culloden Moor in the 18th century; a brave Scotsman known as Henry Leith left Scotland to travel to the colony of America. After marrying a Southern Belle from Virginia they moved to South Carolina to start a family. Only to have their son captured by the Indians.
