Award-winning author Anne Broyles weaves the lyrical story of fourteen-year-old Jane Bushyhead and her family's forced removal, upon threat of death, from their home in the ancestral Cherokee Nation. Based on a true story, this evocative, compelling account of the pain and hardships endured, as well as the love and courage summoned by the Cherokees on the Trail of Tears, is equal measures heartbreaking and hopeful.
