Rebel and revolutionist, Henry Wilson, hoped and prayed that one day he and his fellow compatriots, Hamilton Fish and William T. Sherman, would find a way to free America of its British hold after its failed revolution a century earlier. Henry sees his opportunity when he hears that the Commanding officer of the American colonies’ army, Robert E. Lee, has killed the family of a dismissed high-ranking officer as form of punishment. He discovers the dismissed officer, Ulysses S. Grant, starting fights in a bar. After rescuing and bringing him to safety, Henry tells Grant of the possibility of revenge and revolution. Having been given the target of Robert E. Lee, Grant hunts his old foe, cutting down any who get in his way. However, becoming obsessed with a goal often leads one to miss finer details, such as plots and schemes of former friends and new allies.
