Color of Clouds

Jack is fourteen years old and more than anything in the world, he wants to fly airplanes. But in South Carolina, just after WWI, that is not a possibility for a black boy. After Jack is accused of the brutal murder of a white man, he flees to Chicago, where, because he can pass for white, he crafts a successful career as a stunt pilot. When Jack falls in love with a beautiful, strong-willed, black journalist, he must choose between two very different identities and ultimately, very different futures.Woods, Rita D. is the author of 'Color of Clouds', published 2004 under ISBN 9781592863525 and ISBN 1592863523.
