While dramatic history unfolds from Greensboro to Selma to Memphis, one man makes his own stand for justice and inclusion.
Crossing the Tracks is set in the railroad yards and union halls of Kansas City during the Civil Rights Movement. It's the surprising story of a white, working class family man confronting racism and bigotry on the railroad, in the neighborhood, and in his church.

"Crossing the Tracks is a true American novel, a work of art that values equality, dignity, and justice for all, arrived at by honest living and hard work to make ends meet... I chose this book [Reviewer's Choice 2023] because it is courageous, well-written, and accessible; I have thought of the story and characters long after I finished reading the book." ~ Feathered Quill, Rebecca Jane Johnson
"...reminds us that simple stories about great, moral men are always worth writing about and reading. We can all learn a lot from how this man lived his life and this story is a fitting tribute to an ordinary man with an extraordinary heart." ~ Readers' Favorite Book Reviews, Grant Leishman (5 STARS)
"...a poignant and thought-provoking read that resonated long after the final page... a compelling narrative of one man's journey to overcome prejudice and advocate for change." ~ Readers' Favorite Book Reviews, K.C. Finn (5 STARS)
"...brilliantly written and filled with humor and life lessons. This story exceeded my expectations and will stay with me for a long time." ~ Readers' Favorite Book Reviews, Alma Boucher (5 STARS)
After nearly a lifetime of writing nonfiction essays and articles, lectures and lessons I was rescued from my tedium and set free, liberated to explore life and faith in the realm of fiction. Unwittingly, I seem to have acquired an expansive cast of characters along the way, some begging to enter the story, others hiding in the background, hoping to go unnoticed, but I see them all. So many stories to tell.
I am, as Parker J. Palmer put it, "...one who loves to watch life become words and words become life."
