Rose Frampton is content with life on her family's plantation in South Carolina, but the year 1900 brings many changes for the 15-year-old. She could never imagine that she would marry a Yankee and become the mistress of a New York City estate. Uprooted from the tranquil shores of Saint Helena's Island, she comes to know and love Rene, learns to make her own decisions, and finds an untapped inner strength.

Por un florero, Colombia logra su independencia. La historia nos dice que todo comenzó con un florero. Era Viernes, 20 de Julio y día de mercado, cuando un Criollo fue a pedir prestado un florero. Un acto, en apariencia efímero, desató en un enfrentamiento entre Criollos y Españoles y culminó en la independencia de Colombia. Sin embargo, hoy en día es claro que lo que sucedió este día no fue un hecho espontáneo como aquellos que habían caracterizado la vida política colonial.
