Santa Fe Trail (1940) Synopsis

In 1854, freshly graduated from West Point Military Academy, the former classmates and Second Lieutenants, Jeb Stuart and George Custer, find themselves posted to Fort Leavenworth, in dangerous and worn-torn Kansas Territory. Against the backdrop of endless hostilities, Stuart and Custer escort a military freight wagon, and before long, they confront abolitionist John Brown and his renegade crew. A few years later, on October 16, 1859, Stuart and Custer crush Brown's rebellion in the decisive battle at Harper's Ferry, paving the way for the beginning of the American Civil War.—Nick Riganas
