In this timely exploration of Southern genealogy and history, Lee traces the ancestry of one of his great-grandmothers, Lena Morgan. Starting in Scotland and pre-Revolutionary Carolinas, the extended clans of Morgans, Hares, Champions, and Wests moved to Alabama just after the War of 1812.

A great number of them went off to fight for their Southern heritage. When they returned, they found a world completely changed. Through the violence of the late nineteenth century, the family pressed on, until, in 1929, Lena and her husband moved to Texas.
