The true story of Ward Allen (Jim Caviezel), a post-Civil War aristocrat who sought his fortune as a market hunter on the Savannah River, and who clashed with the government while exercising his right to free enterprise. Along the way, Allen remains deeply loyal to his business partner Christmas Moultrie (Chiwetel Ejiofor), and falls for an irrepressible Southern belle named Lucy Stubbs (Jaimie Alexander). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
