About this product

Product Information

From a riverboat worker who dressed as a woman to the abolitionist who died for his beliefs, It Happened on the Underground Railroad offers a gripping look at heroic individuals who became a part of the famous "road" to freedom. Read about Peter Still, a former slave who came to the Philadelphia Antislavery Society in search of his family, only to discover that the man sitting in front of him was his brother. Meet the individuals who may have inspired characters in the novels Uncle Tom's Cabin and Beloved. Learn about the bakery where Frederick Douglass was first helped to freedom. And experience the heart-pounding fear of a man who mailed himself north.

Reviews
"The Underground Railroad was never one nationwide organization, but rather a network of like-minded people. The 'conductors' and 'agents' of the railroad were made up of individuals and groups; black and white; men and women; free men, ex-slaves, and even slaves. It included people of religion, and of no religion, those with financial resources and those who scraped for a living. This well-researched account of some of these people is informative, valuable, and a pleasure to read. It Happened on the Underground Railroad should definitely be on your 'must read' list."--Ed Diaz, President of the Association for African American Historical Research and Preservation
