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.

EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the story of one man's, and by extension his entire family's, attempt to do the right thing in the face of overwhelming opposition.

"...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)

Hill, Drew

"AUTHOR: I grew up in a small town in the Ozarks, playing baseball, riding bikes, mowing yards, and reading comic books, the youngest of eight children. Norman Rockwell could have moved in down the street and felt right at home. These days I live and write in Arlington, Virginia, with my understanding wife and a cat named Truman. Our three kids are grown, and we are begging for grandchildren. 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.""
