A New York Times Bestseller A Coretta Scott King Honor Author A Jane Addams Children's Book Award–Winning AuthorIt's 1889, barely twenty-five years after the Emancipation Proclamation, and a young Black family is tired of working on land they don't get to own. So when Will and his father hear about an upcoming land rush, they set out on a journey from Texas to Oklahoma, racing thousands of others to the place where land is free — if they can get to it fast enough. But the terrain is rough and the bandits are brutal. And then there's the stranger they encounter and befriend: a mysterious Union soldier named Caesar. All three are propelled by the promise of something long denied to them: freedom, land ownership, and a place to call home — but is a strong will enough to get them there?

Written in hauntingly engaging prose, this brutal and heartrending ­depiction of a vital coming-of-age story is sure to grip readers. Rhodes deftly captures a unique ­aspect of this historical event, with a perspective that is ­often under-represented in historical ­fiction. A poignant and honest look at the trials of racism that defined the ­historic land rush; a must-buy.

This fast-paced and eventful ride through the West [is] an accessible and engaging read... An exciting gallop through real history with little-known heroes taking the lead.

Ripe with historical facts and moments of high tension, this adventurous story reflects on the aftereffects of violence on soldiers and what life looked like for Black citizens following the conclusion of the Civil War. It’s an empowering read that never loses sight of Will’s profound exploration of adolescence.
