A story of love, adventure and politics, Uncle John reflects the turbulence of the 1850s in America, the crucial years leading up to the Civil War, when the southern states were trying almost anything and everything to retain their way of life in a changing world, including trying to annex Cuba to form a slave owning state to add to the power of the South in Congress.
Next stop in Manifest Destiny: Havana.
