This Promised Earth by RAINTREE, LEE. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780553248036.

200 years ago, the dream began...when a simple homestead was built, and survived, in Indian territory. The dream flourished through West Bends days as a great Alabama plantation owned by William Sellers, his wife Martha and their son Calvin. But during the civil war, greed, betrayal and murder cruelly wrested West Bend from the arms of the Sellers family - and the dream died for one hundred years. Until now, when Cody Sellers, Calvins great-grandson, escapes the California glitter and finds his way back to his crumbling ancestral home. Cody Sellers, who swears an oath to recapture his legacy, to see West Bend rise once again. Cody Sellers, the passionate yet bitter man who will reclaim the earth and rebuild the family dream.
