Chief Sunrise, John McGraw, and Me


Author: Timothy Tocher

Fifteen-year-old Hank hops a freight car only to find it is already occupied by Chief Sunrise, a 19-year old self-proclaimed pitching phenom determined to play in the majors. Together they go in search of the big time-playing for the New York Giants during their 1919 season. While the best of friends, each is haunted by a secret- Hank's on the run from his abusive father while the Chief must hide something about his identity from everyone, including Hank. Tocher has found a perfect way to introduce readers to the era of segregation while keeping them turning the pages and waiting to find out what happens next.
