Frontierswoman Sayward Luckett's struggles in Ohio during the late 18th-century and early 19th-century. A new look at how the West was won.  Adapted from the trilogy of novels by Conrad Richter, "The Awakening Land" spans 27 years of frontier settlement. It begins in 1790, when the dirt-poor Lucketts leave Pennsylvania in search of game in the Ohio Territory. The head of the clan, Worth Luckett (Tony Mockus), is a good provider but also a wanderer, so it's not long before his oldest daughter Sayward (Elizabeth Montgomery) is looking after her three sisters.
