When Stephen's father passes away in 1861, he and his mother and
brother are left at the mercy of a cruel uncle. As the Civil War

The opportunity to enlist as Colonel Eli Lilly's personal bugler
arises. After surviving the Battle of Sulphur Branch Trestle in AL,
Stephen is sent to a Confederate prison. The trials of prison life
are severe but at war's end Stephen is sent home aboard the s
teamboat Sultana. However, disaster strikes and the ship
becomes America's worst maritime disaster with 200 more lives
lost than on the Titanic.
