The Frontier - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
The Discovery of a Land
As the former British Colonies on the east coast became the United States of America, their sights were now set on what lay west. A ludicrously good land deal with France unlocks a vast wilderness seemingly open for the taking.
Under Siege
As the United States advances west, the true nature of the land is revealed. What appeared to be a boundless empty terrain was in fact a richly inhabited landscape of diverse indigenous peoples who were not about to surrender their lands without a fight.
Gone to Texas
Mexican-owned Texas offers land and freedom for those white settlers searching for a fresh start but the influx of 'Americans' would be the catalyst for the brutal Mexican-American war that would change the course of US history forever.
The Rush for Gold
The newly acquired territory of California would prove invaluable as the chance discovery of gold unleashes the largest migration in US history and ignites a vicious debate on slavery, culminating in the American Civil War.
The Wild West
A race of the railroads to join the east and west coast would begin a new chapter in US dominance and lead to the rise of the American icon: the cowboy.
The End of the Frontier
As the century draws to a close, the scars of systematic ethnic cleansing of native peoples along with US claims on land stretching the span of the entire continent, seemingly ends 'the frontier' chapter in American history.

Lucie's collision with Darnay and Carton unleashes a powerful and complex love triangle. Both men fight to be worthy of her love, and Lucie is torn over which one to choose.
