Book Description

Who could have known two born to such different circumstances could forge an unbreakable friendship that would demand that they work as one in order to endure a dying way of life and create a new future for themselves and America? The old tree's demise, struck by the finger of God, would be home for the two boys as they begin an odyssey into a war-torn America. Four long years separated from their families, struggling just to survive; relying on each other and their combined wits, their adventure tinged with gain, loss, danger, and love, where they will leave their homes, wander, and come back more American than ever.
