Story: Just prior to the American War of Independence, aristocratic Virginian Jane Peyton marries unsophisticated rustic farmer and surveyor Matt Howard who takes her to his Shenandoah Valley plantation and later goes to war.

Beautiful young Virginian Jane steps down from her proper aristocratic upbringing when she marries down-to-earth surveyor Matt Howard. Matt joins the Colonial forces in their fight for freedom against England. This puts him in direct conflict with Janes brother Fleetwood, who supports the Crown.

In the mid-Eighteenth century, young Matt Howard, the son of a poor backwoods family, has the course of his life altered when he meets the youthful Tom Jefferson. Years later, Matt comes to Williamsburg as an unsophisticated surveyor and Tom arranges for him to work for the snobbish and aristocratic Peyton family. When the Peytons discover Matts rustic origins, he is fired, but he returns to woo and win Jane Peyton, who has hopes of refining Matts untutored ways. To the horror of Janes family, especially her brother Fleetwood, the couple are married and move to the wilderness of the Shenendoah Valley. From their backwoods cabin, a plantation and a family grow, but when Matts first child, whom they name Peyton, is born crippled, Matt is unable to accept the boy because his deformity reminds him of Fleetwood, who also is crippled. As Matts popularity in Virginia grows, Tom encourages him to stand for election in the House of Burgess, and the newly elected representative from the back country becomes deeply enmeshed in politics. When hostilities erupt between the Colonies and Britain, Matt joins the army even though Jane begs him to remain with his family. Matts decision, along with his neglect of Peyton, strikes a severe blow to their marriage which has become increasingly strained over the years. As Matt goes off to war, Jane takes her family and returns to Fleetwoods home, but after an argument with their Tory uncle, the boys leave to join their father in the revolutionary movement. When Peyton risks his life for the sake of the Colonial cause, Matt finally comes to understand and respect his son, and the Howard family is at last reconciled.
