Product Information

In 1836 a young boy travels with his family to East Tennessee. They settle near the famed frontier town and stagecoach stop of Bean Station where they find both fertile pasture and imposing mountains. In this rugged landscape the boy, Bartlet Yancy Harris, and his siblings mature and begin lives of promise. B.Y., as he soon becomes known, falls in love with and eventually marries Lucretia Gray, whom he has known since childhood.

They also have varying war experiences, and individually endure disease, the infamous Andersonville Prison and various Civil War hospitals. Not all of them survive. Meanwhile their families in Bean Station are suffering also. A battle occurs in the middle of town, and Lucretia faces a group o
