The saga of the Logan family --made famous in the Newbery Medal-winning Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry --concludes in a long-awaited and deeply fulfilling story.
In her tenth book, Mildred Taylor completes her sweeping saga about the Logan family of Mississippi, which is also the story of the civil rights movement in America of the 20th century. Cassie Logan, first met in Song of the Trees and Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry , is a young woman now, searching for her place in the world, a journey that takes her from Toledo to California, to law school in Boston, and, ultimately, in the 60s, home to Mississippi for voter registration.

Rich, compelling storytelling is Ms. Taylor's hallmark, and she fulfills expectations...
