Elmira, 1972. The night before Elijah Emmet's high school graduation, the Chemung River is nearly bursting over its banks. By morning, it has flooded and drowned the small city. After the muddy water recedes, there is nothing to do but sort out the destruction, rebuild, and look toward the future. But what awaits Elijah is a society turning its back on working class men like himself, and the years that follow seem only to narrow as they hurtle toward a dead end.
Newtown, 1779. The Revolutionary War has spread to Iroquois country, and a mighty Patriot army burns its way through the villages along the Chemung River. Among the army's ranks, Julius Goreham looks upon the land with dreams of conquest. When the fighting ends and the United States is born, he is free to carry his God-given mission of subjugation back to that battered place where no force can stand in the way of his destiny.
Although nearly two centuries apart, both men find themselves defined by the same land they call home.
Place of the Horn is a story of survival, legacy, resilience, and the indelible links between a place and the people who are fated to live within it.
