It Happened on the Underground Railroad by Tricia Wagner

From a riverboat worker who dressed as a woman to the man who mailed himself north, It Happened on the Underground Railroad offers a gripping look at the heroic individuals who became a part of this famous road to freedom. Read about Peter Still, a former slave who came to the Philadelphia Antislavery Society in search of his family, only to discover that the man sitting in front of him was his brother. Meet the individuals who may have inspired characters in the novels Uncle Tom's Cabin and Beloved. And learn about the bakery where Frederick Douglass was first helped to freedom. In an easy-to-read style that's entertaining and informative, author Tricia Martineau Wagner brings America's slave era to life.
