Moses is found as an infant next to his dying mother, an escaped slave, and is brought to Boston and raised with a baker's family. He grows to be a willful teenager, and after his uncle enlists in the 54th Massachusetts Regiment — the first and most famous black Civil War regiment — Moses is keen on following him to war, hoping to serve his country and find out about his father.
