Spitfire tells the story of Guy Rogers a son of a well-known Black publisher, who has written a novel entitled The Uplift but is told by his publisher that it lacks the aura of reality because he has not lived among the lowly folk about whom he attempts to write. The search for the authentic experience for his novel requires that the novelist declare that he will take Washington as his model and prove that he too, can work as well as write and thus try to emulate our great leader. Rogers promptly travels to a Maryland settlement and meets Spitfire (Morton), the high-spirited daughter of a local farmer. They fall In love but not before a plot develops that as one reviewer put it "just teems with action". See less
