In this miniseries set in the turbulent post-Civil War years, love and pride soar above a nation restarting itself (and one man's obsessive hatred) for two families tied by friendship and fate.
This explosive tale of the next generations of Mains and Hazards boasts an all-star cast and lavish production values depicting a time when westward expansion offered opportunity - and triggered dangers to rival those of the conflict just ended. Undercurrents of racism and romantic passion persist on the home front as well as the frontier. In the hands of executive producers David L. and Mark M. Wolper, this sweeping saga rings with historical authenticity and splendid storytelling.
