Drawing on an 1856 biography and other sources, Fradin tells the story of Peter Still's life in slavery, buying his freedom at age fifty, reuniting with his long-lost mother and siblings in the North, and returning to rescue his wife and children still in the South. Historical images and reproductions show images from slave life. This forms an in-depth companion to Fradin's Bound for Freedom. Bib.
