Great history lesson

The book provides insightful historical lessons. It separates facts from fictions about the Underground Railroad. Finally, it introduces you to people who help our enslaves brothers and sisters in the quest for freedom.

Interesting

Did I know this subject? Yes. Did I have all the facts correct? No. I enjoyed the bits on the lesser known big contributors to this movement.

Not very original. A work of weaving together other books by the same author. However, it does increase sales.

Interesting, but little depth. A [not] enthralling overview.
