Many slaves risked their lives to escape their masters, and slowly a network was set up, the Underground Railroad, to help them reach freedom and safety. This book discusses some of those brave people involved in the Underground Railroad, including Harriet Tubman, Isaac Hopper, John and Jean Rankin, Levi Coffin, George DeBaptiste, and others. They fed, clothed, and guided runaway slaves to the next safe haven on their quest to reach freedom. The author uses primary sources so readers can hear participants in their own words. Overall, the book provides an exciting story about a piece of American history.
