But navigating the wild west of Texas in the 1830s is even harder. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJake Duncan is a Ranger in the U.S. Army and a grad student struggling with his history class. He's a regular guy-a former football player who loves beer, takeout, and is on the brink of proposing to his girlfriend, Jenny. One day, he stumbles on a gravestone with his name and correct birth date on it, and his life is changed forever. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore long, he leaves a suburban neighborhood of Austin in his pickup and finds himself stuck-alone-in the year 1836, when Texas was a deserted war zone and the future was uncertain. Jake bonds with an escaped slave, Nate, and together they make their way across the wild terrain, encountering Mexican pilgrims, American pioneers, and Native Americans along the way-some of them hostile. His modern weapons help a bit, as does his 21st-century medical training. He helps deliver a baby, saves malaria patients, and treats battle wounds. He meets a tough-as-nails widow named Kate, and they begin to fall for each other. After weeks in the past, Jake isn't sure he wants to return to 2020. Kate has captured his heart. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWill he make it back to 2020 without Kate?
