Rawhider — Charles N. Hecklemann

In April, 1862, the Civil War is just starting its second year of fighting. Riverboat owner and captain Bill Horn wanted to fight for the Union, but it was decided he could better serve his country by using the Western Star to ferry troops and supplies. Kay Graham, owner and pilot of the Queen, had been his biggest competitor for business on the river, but she too is now using her boat and skills for the Union.
