Away West Paperback - 2006
by Patricia McKissack; Gordon C. James (Illustrator)
The second novel in McKissack's family saga recounts a Southern boy's dream of heading west to a new life and the way in which his journey teaches him the deeper meaning of a medal his father earned in the Civil War. Illustrations.
Summary
Unlike his older brothers, thirteen-year-old Everett was "born in freedom," never knowing life as a slave. His most prized possession is the medal his father earned in the Civil War. Now, more than 125 years later, that treasure is kept in the Websters' attic with other "scraps of time," ready to be discovered by another generation eager to know its family history. The second novel in Patricia C. McKissack's family saga recounts a young Southern boy's dream of heading west to a new life and the way in which his journey teaches him the deeper meaning of the medal his father won.
First line
In the cold darkness, Everett sat squeezed between sacks of sugar, cotton, rice, and tea.
