Ten Mile Road Fredna DeCarlo

Three young city boys stumble upon an old abandoned car on their grandparents' West Texas ranch one summer. The car looks and feels like it fell directly out of a horror story, and before the summer is over, this will prove true. These three young brothers will learn hard lessons about history, themselves, life, honor, and respect before this summer trip to their grandparents is over. This old car will send them back in time to where they will fight as young soldiers in the Battle of Gettysburg. They will experience the terror of runaway slave children on the Underground Railroad. They will travel the devastating miles of the Trail of Tears as Cherokee children. Then they will survive the mind-bending realities of the Sobibor extermination camp during the Holocaust.
