It's a whole new world in 1824 Louisiana. France has sold their land to the still-new United States, and now Spain has given Florida up for a strong border West. All of that change proves too exciting for one skinny red fox growing up in deep Cajun country, the first American-born in his family. And so begins an incredible journey across the Southern states, where Barton Rouge will meet both friends and foes alike on his way through the darkest voodoo country in all the land.
Barton's been sneaking along the edge of the bayou, gathering up supplies for his adventure across the Southern states, on his way to the new American holding of Florida. Just before he's about to start his trip, he spots a coyote being chased by a pack of dogs. Not finding it a fair fight, the fox intervenes, grabbing the dogs' attention and leading them away from the coyote, then rounding back and helping him escape into the dark, gloomy bayou. Barton's generosity isn't without benefit. The skinny fox could use a big coyote for protection on his journey. Just has to make sure he doesn't start off on the wrong paw.
