Ephram Humphry is a man with a dream of owning his own business. When his Cherokee neighbors are forced to move to Indian Territory, he sees this as a chance to make that dream a reality. With the help of his wife, Mindy, Eph takes his family and follows the Cherokee to the small town that will become the capital of their new nation. When things don't go as planned, Andy, Addie, and Desdimona step in to help their parents make the best of a bad situation while still finding time, as children do, to have some fun. Through their victories and defeats, the Humphrys find their place as the white man in Indian lands.
