Bookroo's summary

Journey into early America, where the brutal reality of slavery unfolds. Discover the lives of those forced into bondage, their relentless struggle for freedom, and the daring escapes that defied oppression. As abolitionists fight tirelessly, the nation hurtles toward a Civil War that will decide the fate of slavery. Will justice prevail, or will the chains of the past hold firm? Explore the courage and resilience of those who dared to dream of equality in a world built on their suffering.

From the publisher

Life in early America was not always easy, and this was especially true for the people brought to the country as slaves. Readers learn how the practice of slavery started in the American colonies and what daily life was like for a slave. They explore the hard work of the abolitionists to end slavery and discover how it ultimately took the Civil War to end the practice for good.
