Synopsis

A young woman's coming-of-age story set in Vincennes, Indiana, during the American Revolution — a classic 19th-century American regional romance with a strong adventure thread as the plot involves a British raid and a rescue mission. The tone is nostalgic and romanticized, and the romance between Alice and the soldier is the central emotional arc.
