Just outside the old Indian village of Tiskilwa Lycurgus Sherwood lies crumpled in the sawdust of a big revival tent, cut down even as he received the Fullness of the Blessing. His wife Rachael and frontier Doctor Charles Cutter transport the wounded Surge to nearby Princeton, where they seek refuge at the home of Owen Lovejoy. Their meeting with this determined foe of slavery-and his equally formidable opposition- show Lycurgus that it is frontier Illinois' compromise with slavery that has fostered the border state's ambivalence and division.

John Spencer lives and works along the picturesque Sangamon River in the heart of Illinois. He earned his B.A. in Art from the University of Illinois, is a U.S. Navy veteran of Desert Storm and recipient of both the Naut Tahrir al-Kuwait and National Defense medals but it was in his role as assistant to the Historic Sites Director at an Illinois prairie preserve that his interest in antebellum Illinois was piqued. Months spent conducting research for the preserve led to a desire to relate the story of two of the West's most unsung heroes; the reluctant abolitionist and the fiery New England puritan, both of whom were formidable forces with which to contend on the burgeoning frontier.
