The story is set in the American Civil War era and follows the life of a young man named Harry Kenton, the son of a famous Confederate cavalry officer known as Light Horse Harry. Harry Kenton is eager to follow in his father's footsteps and join the Confederate army, but he soon discovers the harsh realities of war and the toll it takes on both soldiers and civilians.The novel is divided into several parts, each focusing on a different period of the war and Harry's experiences during that time. Throughout the book, Harry faces a variety of challenges, from battlefield injuries to personal tragedies, and must learn to navigate the complexities of war and the conflicting loyalties it creates.Along the way, Harry encounters a diverse cast of characters, including fellow soldiers, civilians caught up in the conflict, and even historical figures such as Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson.
