Le premier rebelle (1939)
1759. L’Amérique n’est encore qu’une colonie britannique. Dans une vallée de Pennsylvanie seize ans avant la Guerre d’Indépendance, face à la menace grandissante constituée par les tribus indiennes, d’intrépides pionniers menés par le trappeur Jim Smith prennent les armes pour se défendre. Dans le même temps, ils décident de se révolter contre les Anglais qui se comportent envers eux plus en maîtres qu’en protecteurs, encourageant même la contrebande qui fournit des armes à leurs ennemis indiens…
