John Wesley Powellcollege officialsReverend Powell
In "Chapter 10" of Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales, young Powell makes a bold choice to follow his own path—turning away from his father’s expectations of a life in the pulpit, a marriage to his cousin, and a traditional education, instead seeking a college where he can study the sciences. The story captures a moment of quiet determination as Powell charts a course shaped by curiosity and ambition, setting him on a path that diverges from the one laid out for him.

In the final months of the Civil War, Powell, a Black soldier who served with the Colored Troops, is reassigned to the artillery, where he finds himself alongside comrades from his past.
