In the wake of the Civil War, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd travels through northern Texas, giving live readings from newspapers to paying audiences hungry for news of the world. An elderly widower who has lived through three wars and fought in two of them, the captain enjoys his rootless, solitary existence. In Wichita Falls, he is offered a $50 gold piece to deliver a young orphan to her relatives in San Antonio. Four years earlier, a band of Kiowa raiders killed Johanna's parents and sister; sparing the little girl, they raised her as one of their own. Recently rescued by the U.S. army, the ten-year-old has once again been torn away from the only home she knows. Their 400-mile journey south through unsettled territory and unforgiving terrain proves difficult and at times dangerous. Johanna has forgotten the English language, tries to escape at every opportunity, throws away her shoes, and refuses to act "civilized." Yet as the miles pass, the two lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other, forming a bond that marks the difference between life and death in this treacherous land. Arriving in San Antonio, the reunion is neither happy nor welcome. The captain must hand Johanna over to an aunt and uncle she does not remember--strangers who regard her as an unwanted burden. A respectable man, Captain Kidd is faced with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become--in the eyes of the law--a kidnapper himself"-- $c Provided by publisher. 586 $a National Book Award finalist, 2016. 650 0 $a Voyages and travels $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Widowers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Orphans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Kiowa Indians $v Fiction. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y 19th century $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Orphans $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION $x Historical. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION $x Literary. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Kiowa Indians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00987810 650 7 $a Orphans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01048433 650 7 $a Voyages and travels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01169308 650 7 $a Widowers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01174932 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Voyages and travels $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Widowers $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Orphans $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Kiowa Indians $v Fiction. $2 sears 651 7 $a United States $x History $y 19th century $v Fiction. $2 sears 651 7 $a San Antonio, Texas $x Fiction. $2 sears 648 7 $a 1800-1899. 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 648 7 $a 1800-1899. $2 unknown 655 0 $a Historical fiction. 655 4 $a History. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 sears 655 7 $a History. $2 unknown 776 08 $i Online version: $a Jiles, Paulette, 1943- $t News of the world. $d New York, NY : William Morrow, [2016] $z 9780062409225 $w (DLC) 2015041725 856 42 $3 Cover image $u http://static.harpercollins.com/harperimages/isbn/large/1/9780062409201.jpg 856 42 $3 More Info $i Input this URL in a browser to get HTML More Info data. $q HTML $u http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DECRead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0062409204&sessionid=0&srcdbname=worldcat&key=ffafe068e28199e33bf2a95a4c1c4063aabbd526aad09f76fc81ee3ee4f096f2&ectype=MOREINFO $x OCLC EC 856 42 $3 View cover image provided by Mackin $u http://www.mackin.com/BookPics/Book.aspx?isbn=9780062409201 941 $a 6 $n 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20240124133022.0 $n 10 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20230822165431.0 $n 22 $p Third Age Set: 6 R 14 LP + 2 CD 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230119143507.0 $m FIC JIL $n 18 $p + 1 BOCD + 1 LP 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20210614133553.0 $n 11 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210601113210.0 $n 5 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20210525140119.0 $n 15 $p +LP+CD 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2E59F70EAC3311EB98A411E3203FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
