Borderland

While a Young Nation Struggles to Survive, One Family Divides In Hate and Bloodshed... Borderland, Book One, of The Borderland Trilogy. Will Hartman's sons and daughters were a fierce and determined American family, with a legacy of honor and a bold dream to build new lives on the Missouri frontier. But long before America declared itself at war over the issue of slavery, Kansas and Missouri were in pitched battle. John Brown's bloody raids into Missouri were answered with retaliatory strikes at the homes of the abolitionists. The Hartman family was caught up in the division on opposite sides. Soon their anger burned as hotly as their passions . . . and Hartman blood soaked the earth, as brother faced brother across a gulf of hatred on the Borderland.
