520 1 $a"When Rita Williams was four, her mother died in a Denver boarding house. This death delivered Rita into the care of her Aunt Daisy, the last surviving African American widow of a Union soldier and a maverick who had spirited her share-cropping family out of the lynching South and reinvented them as ranch hands and hunting guides out West. But one by one they slipped away, to death or to an easier existence elsewhere, leaving Rita as Daisy's last hope to right the racial wrongs of the past and to make good on a lifetime of thwarted ambition. If the Creek Don't Rise tells how Rita found her way out from under this crippling legacy and, instead of becoming " a perfect credit to her race," discovered how to become herself."--BOOK JACKET.
