When you think of slavery and the Underground Railroad, I bet you think of abolitionist heroes moving people from station to station under the cover of night. Families fleeing north to freedom and the promise of a life free from abuse. What if I told you some slaves ran south?
The lesser known southern path of the Underground Railroad takes center stage in Krista Russell’s (Chasing the Nightbird) new historical fiction novel, The Other Side of Free.

Never heard of slaves fleeing South except for those who went back to get their families. I would like to read this one. I think it's on my Kindle. Not sure….
I'm with Tea on this one. I had not heard of this before. Interest officially piqued. Thanks for the rec!
