About The Good Lord Bird

The Good Lord Bird is a 2013 novel by American journalist and author James McBride. The story follows Henry Shackleford, a young enslaved boy in Kansas Territory who becomes entangled with the radical abolitionist John Brown during the violent years of Bleeding Kansas and eventually takes part in Brown's famous raid on Harpers Ferry in 1859. Told in a distinctive, humorous first-person voice, the novel blends historical fact with comic invention and explores themes of race, identity, freedom, and the nature of heroism. The Good Lord Bird won the National Book Award for Fiction in 2013 and was adapted into a limited television series starring Ethan Hawke.
