Two novellas, "e;I Am a Freight Train"e; and "e;The Fields Are Ripe for Harvest,"e; compose "e;The Byrds of Victory"e; -- the stories of Preacher Byrd, who fights in the South Pacific during World War II and returns to his small Texas Panhandle hometown to work as a blacksmith-welder and to join black and Mexican-American leaders and start a farm workers' union, which results in a great deal of intrigue and ends with a shoot-out; and Preacher's son Benny, haunted by the tragedy of a drag racing accident while working with a wheat harvest crew in Texas, Colorado, Nebraska and Montana. "e;I Am a Freight Train"e; is the colorful Preacher Byrd's first-person account of his life while "e;The Fields Are Ripe for Harvest"e; is told in the classic naturalistic style through only what the characters do, say and experience. The novel thereby powerfully imparts a sense of time and place that gives it a unique authenticity.
