Synopsis
He's a fourteen-year-old whom nobody could call an angel, and some might call an imp of Satan. He and his uncle Jim, a full-grown devil of a fellow, are in flight for their lives from the Ku Kluxers they have offended. Their hilarious and hair-raising odyssey takes them across a post Civil War Southland filled with carpetbaggers and murderous Klansmen, fast-talking medicine men and cold-hearted belles, reformed pirates and Indians-friendly and treacherous. Their route to the Florida keys is filled with near-disaster and miraculous escape, skulduggery and unexpected salvation, trouble and, at last, treasure, with high adventure and irresistable humor every step of the way. Here is a mighty novel to put beside "The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters" as a rich and rollicking evocation of America's past-a rare and wonderful treat for the jaded modern reader.
