Description

The Last Runaway by Tracy Chevalier is set in 1850s Ohio, where Honor Bright finds herself torn between two worlds. After fleeing heartache, she must navigate life as a Quaker in a community that may not be as supportive of her beliefs as she had hoped. As Honor struggles to find her place and voice, she faces difficult choices about how to help those in need. The woods and fields of Ohio are home to many dangers, including ruthless men who hunt down escaped slaves. With the kindness of strangers and the courage of her convictions, Honor must decide what she is willing to risk for her beliefs. This vivid novel explores themes of defiance, friendship, and the power of standing up for what one believes in.
