Wagon Wheels
Shortly after the Civil War, a black family travels to Kansas to take advantage of the free land offered through the Homestead Act. During their first months on the prairie, they build a dugout house, live through a cold winter, are threatened by starvation, and saved by Osage Indians. When spring arrives, the father moves on, and the boys stay behind until their father finds a place to live and sends for them.
