In the bitter Christmas cold of a Maryland winter, they fled, hoping to find a home and freedom in the Indiana wilderness. Delaino inherited the estate when his grandfather passed, leaving Beaux penniless. Beaux's only hope for the restoration of his life, was to kill Del Rio.The lurking menace of Beaux's pursuit and vows to kill them both hung over their heads on their flight, until their saga drew to a vicious conclusion at the end of the Oregon Trail. Boy and ex-slave growing up on a wagon train headed west toward manhood and freedom. The kind of manhood and freedom only the anvil of the American west could forge.
