(2) YA When his brother enlists in the local militia with its anti-Semitic beliefs, Ryan begins to challenge the political rhetoric he's heard all his life growing up on a ranch in Wyoming. This insidious conflict overshadows other aspects of Ryan's coming-of-age story, and its resolution comes well before the novel's end. But Ryan is an involving focus for both his own story and the larger social issues raised by the author.
