Twelve-year-old Joe Lacey, son of a non-Mormon gas-station owner, feels caught between two worlds in 1926 Tooele, Utah—the pioneer 'Oldtown' and the immigrant smelter workers of 'Newtown.' When new coach and teacher Sterling Harris arrives, he refuses to accept the town's divisions, recruiting boys of every nationality and faith onto one football team. Based on a true story, this warm historical novel follows a community learning to unite through grit, sacrifice, and the quiet influence of one remarkable man.
- Based on the true story of a real coach who bridged a divided Utah town
- A Depression-era sports underdog tale with heart—clean and inspirational
- Football, faith, and immigration collide in 1920s Tooele
- Perfect for readers of small-town, faith-friendly historical fiction
“Well, if you want friends, sometimes you've got to be one first.”
Perfect for a reader who loves inspirational true-story sports narratives about a coach uniting a divided town, with Utah/LDS regional flavor but broad crossover appeal.
