Publisher's Synopsis
In the crook of the Blue Ridge, early in the 19th Century, there were factories with money and guns being made. Water ran the machines and a millwright ran the water. So one came to Harper's Ferry in 1821 seeking fortune, a bride, and a life. Though local politics were thick, the living was exciting, and the characters many. The millwright, Sessions, met a feisty young woman named Meg, and a life almost beyond imagination began on the frontier of America.
