Some people’s lives become a beacon for the lives of others. This is the true and compelling story of Reverend Francis Joseph “Bud” Atlas Sr., a black farmer who raised twelve highly successful children and quietly took on the fight for voting rights and justice— and won. As the tenth child, author Annie Chatman paints a vivid picture of a happy childhood and the hard work and rewards of life on the farm with her siblings. The book follows the family from 1926 through 1963. Set in a small town in the deep South, it highlights the struggle of whites and blacks navigating the “separate but equal” doctrine of the times, with every aspect of their lives separated—schools, churches, public restrooms—and blacks facing inequality at every turn. But Bud is determined that each of his children will become all they are capable of becoming, and despite financial poverty, the family is rich in hopes, dreams, and ambition.

Dr. Horatio Jackson wasn’t necessarily a betting man. But in 1903, he overheard a stranger saying that it was just not possible to drive across the United States in one of those unreliable, newfangled automobiles. Jackson disagreed - he believed in the future of the automobile. So he made a $50 bet with the man that he could drive a car from San Francisco to New York. Jackson bought a used Winton automobile, hired a mechanic named Crocker, packed some supplies, and adopted Bud, a bulldog who became their mascot. The trio’s only goal was to make it from San Francisco all the way to New York City in one piece. Yet 5,600 miles and 63 1/2 days later, what they actually did was make history. This true story is based on Jackson’s own account of the first automobile trip across the United States.
