(3) 4-6 When old Harrison essentially shames him into joining him in running away from the Kentucky farm where they are both enslaved, eleven-year-old Samuel fears the perils of escape as much as he does the master. Set in 1859, this story of Harrison and Samuel's bid for Canada is perilous and suspenseful, with both help and danger coming from unexpected places.
