Nadie sabe de dónde viene el término ferrocarril subterráneo: no había trenes ni vías, solo "conductores" que ayudaban a escapar de los esclavos hacia la libertad. Incluyendo historias reales sobre "pasajeros" en el "Ferrocarril", este libro narra las llamadas cercanas de los esclavos con los cazarrecompensas, las luchas agotadoras en el camino y lo que sacrificaron por la libertad.
