Set in the times when men were 'gentlemen' and women were 'delicate flowers' to be taken care of, the romance takes place against a backdrop of bloody conflict between the Amercian calvary and the British (with both sides making use of tribes of Native American Indians). The heroine of the story is different in that she is independent and refuses to be 'taken care of' but instead pursues her own goals despite ongoing opposition.

William Chambers Morrow (1854-1923) was an American writer, now noted mainly for his short stories of horror and suspense. He is probably best known for the much-anthologised story His Unconquerable Enemy (1889). He moved to California in 1879 and began selling stories to the Argonaut. His first novel was Blood-Money (1882). A Strange Confession, was serialised in the Californian in 1880-81, but was never published in book form. His stories were collected in The Ape, the Idiot and Other People in 1897, but he published few stories thereafter. By 1899 Morrow had begun a school for writers, and in 1901 he produced a pamphlet, The Art of Writing for Publication. Morrow published two romantic adventure novels, A Man: His Mark (1900) and Lentala of the South Seas (1908). He also published a journalistic work called Bohemian Paris of Today and a short travel booklet, Roads Around Paso Robles (1904).
