Based on true events and combining genealogy, history and imagination, Flow On Sweet Missouri spans the years 1861 to 1938. It is the story of a family searching for freedom and a story of America as it seeks a more perfect union. The story begins as Mary Boothman gives birth on the banks of a coal mine to daughter Minnie. Mary is fleeing bushwhackers who have terrorized her home. The family recently settled in the river town of Lexington, Missouri, but finds a peaceful life cannot be, for in 1861 America has turned on itself. Mary’s husband, William, joins the Union cavalry as Missourians divide their allegiance between the North and the South. The reader is swept into the family’s history and the history of America.
