The Underground Railroad

(4) 4-6 Journey to Freedom series. Brief texts, archival reproductions, and photos explore three significant eras in African-American history. Though the surveys in this series are generally overbroad and written in facile prose, Underground Railroad is enhanced by the inclusion of some intriguing anecdotal material. The format, which includes wide margins and many black-and-white photos and historical reproductions, should appeal to reluctant readers. Time lines are included. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Journey to Freedom titles: Slavery, The Civil Rights Movement, The Underground Railroad.]
