"Ride Proud, Rebel!" by Andre Norton is a historical novel written in the early 1960s. The story centers on Drew Rennie, a Confederate cavalry scout during the American Civil War, as he navigates the complexities of allegiance and identity in a divided Kentucky. The novel likely explores themes of rebellion, family loyalty, and the harsh realities of war. At the start of the narrative, Drew is depicted in a reflective moment near
a brook, taking care of his horse before embarking on a mission to gather horses for General Morgan's troops. As he prepares, he recalls the construction of his childhood tree house and the memories of his late brother, Sheldon. The peace is disrupted when he encounters his younger cousin, Boyd Barrett, who idolizes Drew and wishes to join him in the fight. This opening sets the stage for the conflict between familial bonds and individual aspirations amidst the backdrop of the civil war, establishing Drew's complex relationships and the difficult choices that lie ahead.
