Synopsis from FictionDB:
As England descends into civil war, John
Tradescant the Younger, gardener to King Charles I, finds his loyalties
in question, his status an ever-growing danger to his family. Fearing
royal defeat and determined to avoid serving the rebels, John escapes to
the royalist colony of Virginia, a land bursting with fertility that
stirs his passion for botany. Only the native American peoples
understand the forest, and John is drawn to their way of life just as
they come into fatal conflict with the colonial settlers. Torn between
his loyalty to his country and family and his love for a Powhatan girl
who embodies the freedom he seeks, John has to find himself before he is
prepared to choose his direction in the virgin land.
