Sounds in my Shadow

This is a historical fiction of a young Canadian man that was left home to mind his younger brother and their small farm at age nine. It tells of the life of a young boy at the age of 11 having to work as a man. Two years later, like many young teenagers his father told him to leave home as he no longer could feed him. He will find a way to ride the rails as he heads to where he feels there may be work. The kindness of strangers helped him to endure the loneliness of a strange world with no longer a family for comfort.
