George McJunkin, ex-slave, accidentally gets the Klu Klux Klan angry at him.  He leaves town to protect his life and gets a three-month stint as a horse wrangler on a cattle drive.  The drive begins in Commanche, Texas and ends in Abilene, Kansas; quite a distance on horseback.  Can George survive the trail and all its hardships?  Read Wrango and find out.  (Amy Schaffner, amy.schaffner@risd.org, librarian)
