Author Event: Jon Volkmer Brave in Season Reading

Based On True Events

In the 1950s, a group of black railroad workers are forced to work in the small town of Julian, Nebraska. One of them, 16-year-old Sam Washington, befriends 17-year-old Carlin Littman.

Decades later, Carlin’s younger brother, Timmy, returns to Julian to learn more about the conflict their relationship inspired—and tell a story everyone would rather forget.

“Brave in Season captures a historical moment that soon will lie beyond living memory, evoking a mythic small-town romance of baseball and then drawing from it a gripping parable of racial oppression.” -Rand Richards Cooper, author of The Last to Go
