Struggling to find work, and avoiding the plots of relatives who only see the children as a chance to have free labor for their tobacco farms, Mary searches for a way to keep her family safe and together.
Faced with an option she once would have considered horrific, Mary must decide what's best for her children, even if it breaks her heart.
Based on the true story of the author's grandmother, A High Courage is told with humor and hope. Mary's dilemma and story of those harrowing fifteen months honors the memory of the resilience and bravery of an amazing woman.
