Summary |
"A young slave girl from South Carolina decides she will no longer be a slave and she persuades her family to make the journey north to Canada and freedom on the Underground Railroad. They are led by "Moses," the famous Harriet Tubman, and travel on foot, in buggies, on pushcarts and on paddle-wheelers until they reach Canada."-- Provided by publisher |
