My Journey on the Underground Railroad (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482440102)

Perhaps one of the most harrowing journeys in US history, traveling the Underground Railroad was dangerous, long, and often very uncomfortable. Men, women, and children often had to walk hundreds of miles to safe houses, usually at night, and stay in cramped quarters until it was safe for them to keep moving. Readers learn what it was like to travel on the Underground Railroad through the eyes of a child escaping slavery. From food to traveling conditions, the narrator's unique perspective will enhance readers' understanding of what it was like to be a slave in early America.
