Publisher: Lakeside Publishing MI

Out of Slavery: A Novel of Harriet Tubman is a historical fiction story that follows the perilous path of the UGRR and the tragic costs of the Civil War. This compelling tale is seen through the eyes of Cece, Tilly, and Lou, as Harriet conducts them to safety along the UGRR. When they enlist in the Union Army, Harriet and her companions act together with Frederick Douglass, Colonel Shaw, and Sergeant Carney to preserve a divided nation and free a people caught in the web of slavery. It is a story of romance and realism, and the triumphs and tragedies of war.
