In the 1860's the flight for liberty for many slaves was a
voracious desire, one that often could not be obtained without
outside help. A twice-captured slave from Oak Bend, Georgia simply
named George embraces his dream of freedom through his master's
granddaughter, Lacey. At an early age, with her mother's
clandestine aid, Lacey helps George begin his journey. Armed with a
few coins, a pocket watch, and The Anti-Slavery Bugle from Salem,
Ohio, he leaves Georgia to become a free man. George's well-planned
escape leads through narrow opportunities that if missed would
result in certain capture. Abolitionists throughout Georgia and the
Carolinas cast aside their safety to ensure his future. When the
freedom fighters of Salem, Ohio break the lock of bondage, he is
lulled into the false security of the rural town and despite
constant pursuit he decides to make Salem his home. This tale
recalls a dark time in American history - an era of fervent
believers in either the rights of freedom or the necessity of
slavery and the constant, brutal, and secretive battle between the
two.
