Cane & Pone Unlikely Gun Fighters

In the spring of 1862, the war between the Union and the Confederates was raging. Slaves in the Confederacy for the most part had little idea what the war was about other than what was told to them by the plantation owners. At that time, runaway slaves was becoming more of a problem all of the time and increased when some slaves learned of free Negroes in the north. Negroes fought in the Union Army and some Negro slaves were pressed into service to fight for the Confederacy. This is a story of two young Negro slaves who were caught up in this conflict and wanted no part of it. They had been advised to head west, which proved difficult to say the least and they had absolutely no knowledge of the west and what they would encounter.
