A chance meeting that changed lives…
By July of 1780, the American War of Independence under the command of General George Washington had been raging for more than five years. And, at long last, aid from the French arrives in the form of troops led by LeComte de Rochambeau.
Rochambeau chooses as his bodyguard an Italian mercenary, Major Jean Canossa, who has volunteered to fight in America so he could rise in rank. This appointment has a profound effect upon both their lives: for Rochambeau, it provides a dimension of humanity amid the harshness of war, and for Canossa, it offers interactions with people he otherwise never would meet.
One of those people is Nancy Campan, for whom he falls, and hard. Nancy feels the same, and when her family accepts him as one of their own, the direction of Canossa's life is changed forever.
