Focusing on the historical context of child welfare in America, the narrative follows the efforts of Charles Loring Brace, who initiated the Children’s Aid Society to provide homes for homeless children. Between 1854 and 1929, around 200,000 children embarked on a transformative journey in search of families. In this sequel to Orphan Train Rider, Andrea Warren highlights the stories of nine individuals who experienced this remarkable migration, shedding light on their lives and the impact of their journeys on American history.
