@lt;DIV@gt;A fascinating collection of primary and secondary source
materials from a variety of perspectives on this period in
America's history. Excerpts include the dramatic escape of William
and Ellen Craft, David Walker's Appeal, an account of Harriet
Tubman, text from the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, oral histories of
fugitive slaves, and two passages from Frederick Douglass'
narratives. A map of the major underground routes gives readers a
broader picture of these times. Historic illustrations and three
spirituals round out the text.@lt;/div@gt;
