Description
Henry McAllan moves his city-bred wife, Laura, to a cotton farm in the Mississippi Delta in 1946. Laura does not share Henry's love of rural life, and she struggles to raise their children in a shotgun shack with no indoor plumbing or electricity under the eye of hateful, racist father-in-law. While living there, two celebrated soldiers of World War II return home--Henry's brother Jamie, and Ronsel Jackson, eldest son of black sharecroppers who live on the McAllan farm. They each come home as a war hero to face the dangerous battles against the ingrained bigotry of their own countrymen.
