Stephen Fox arrived in New Orleans in 1825 on a pig boat, with a ten-dollar gold piece, a pearl stick-pin...and a dream. Tall, red-haired, with a face that looked like Lucifer's so soon after the fall that the angel-look was still on it, Stephen Fox saw his chance and took it- took it from an indolent, slave ridden, caste bound people, with a skill and daring of a card-sharp he was. He gambled and won.... and built "Harrow" the greatest manor house and plantation in Louisiana.
