The story unfolds against the backdrop of post-Civil War America, particularly following a small group of Kentucky families who emigrate to Brazil in pursuit of a new life. Central to the narrative is the Reverend Orme Leighton, who carries with him not only a fervent past but also the weight of familial division and loss, as he navigates the challenges of settling in a foreign land with his wife, Ann, and their children.  The opening of the novel introduces readers to the Leighton family's struggles as they relocate to Sao Paulo after the war, highlighting themes of displacement and personal tragedy. The Reverend Orme Leighton’s background as a Confederate minister plays a significant role in shaping his character, revealing the conflict between loyalty and loss. As the family attempts to establish a new life in Brazil, they face myriad obstacles, from financial difficulties to the harsh realities of adapting to a different culture. The opening sets the stage for exploring the family's dynamics, particularly the complex relationships between the Reverend, Ann, and their children, as they grapple with their past while forging a future in a new land.
