CORETTA SCOTT KING AWARD WINNER • The sweeping saga of the Mississippi Logan family comes to a compelling conclusion—made famous in Newbery Medal-winning Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry—as Cassie, now a young woman, witnesses turn-of-the-century historical events such as the Civil Rights Movement.

“Offers insights into seismic social movements and systematic oppression in the grim realities of racism faced by the family.”—Publishers Weekly

“Gives readers an up-close and personal view of key events of the civil rights movement.”—Kirkus Reviews

Change is coming and Cassie Logan will be part of it. Cassie—first met as a feisty eight-year-old—is a young woman now, searching for her place in the world, a journey that takes her from the Logan family home in Toledo to California and Colorado, then on to law school in Boston, and ultimately, home to Mississippi to be part of the voter registration drive of the 1960s.

She is witness to the now-historic events of the century: the Great Migration north, the relentless racism of postwar America, the rise of the Civil Rights Movement, and the often violent confrontations that brought about change. Readers who grew up with Cassie Logan, as well as those just discovering the Logans, will be both inspired and satisfied by her story.

Critic reviews

"Taylor deftly sketches the strong characters of this tight-knit, though increasingly far-flung, family, and offers insights into seismic social movements and systematic oppression in the grim realities of racism faced by the family."—Publishers Weekly

"Taylor is unsparing in her depiction of the years of segregation and of the Black experience of white racism, bigotry, and injustice . . . this never-didactic book is irresistibly readable, while the richly realized, highly empathic characters are unforgettable. Taylor's remarkable novel is, in sum, that rare exception: an absolutely indespensible book."—Booklist

"Taylor (Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry) has captivated legions of readers with award-winning masterful tales of the Logan family for over 40 years . . . Readers will fall in love with the Logans, whether for the first time or again, with this important conclusion to a literary era."—School Library Journal

"This story also gives readers an up-close and personal view of key events of the civil rights movement. In this Logan swan song, Taylor is at her best. Surely the crown jewel of the Logan family Saga."—Kirkus Reviews
