The Confederate States of America continues to grow and expand as it prepares for the inevitable invasion from the north. Major Elder Stuart, Sergeant Major Jesse Thompkins and Big Jim Porchais find themselves becoming the eyes and ears of General Samuel Cooper and his boss, President Jefferson Davis, sometimes in very dangerous circumstances. Witness the rise of the Confederate Military hierarchy as Generals jockey for positions. Ride the ever shrinking no man’s land between the Union and Confederate Armies as they finally meet at Manassas Junction and its’ infamous stream known as Bull Run. A place where legends were born and the myth of a short, glorious war died. See the chaos of the collapse of the Union Army and the panicked retreat back to Washington. Ride through a silent battlefield that has been cleared of the wounded, but not the dead. Witness the reactions as both sides realize that this will be a long, bloody war.....
