COVER QUOTE: "[An] entertaining and provocative story...it has the narrative flow and evocative language of a fine historical novel."--The St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Engrossing...would go great with popcorn.... Addresses big topics--evolution, abolition--but they remain in service of the narrative, providing context for colorful conflict." --The Wall Street Journal "Swift, clever, well-researched and provocative.... Reel skillfully shifts our attention from continent to continent, from past to present, until the story's tributaries merge and rush toward the conclusion." --The Plain Dealer
