Description
Lawrence, Kansas, summer of 1863- A growing prairie town, unassuming except for one thing; its strong antislavery stance. Who would have believed the little town would be the target of a cruel massacre. But after the homes and businesses were torched by William Clark Quantrill and his raiding band, fully half the buildings were reduced to ashes and 150 people were dead. Curiously, many of the men marked for death on Quantrill's list escaped, including a U.S. Senator and other free-state supporters. The Davis family is acquainted with Quantrill and they fear for their lives and home as the raid ensues. When 18 year old Beth Davis and her father are drawn into the gruesome aftermath of caring for the injured and dying, Beth's suitor, Dan Wilcox, joins other men to avenge the attackers. How will the Lawrence residents rebuild their town when fear has threatened the faith of so many people? And will Beth ever see Dan again? Relive these actual events as told by popular author Esther Lowen Vogt, who is known for historical fiction that chronicles events in the history of Kansas.
