The Underground Railroad

Bag om The Underground Railroad

Hiding by day, running by night, living off prayers and will, thousands of slaves had to risk all they had in order to achieve what others are given at birth-freedom. The Underground Railroad is an intimate view of the experiences, heartaches, and triumphs of those who used the system. Told by the father of the system himself, The Underground Railroad is a collection of records kept by author William Still. Using narratives, letters, facts and first-hand accounts all witnessed by Still, The Underground Railroad tells the stories of hundreds of those who escaped slavery, offering readers a close and historically accurate look into the lives of slaves fighting for refuge.
