Summary:

A desperate leap for liberty! That's what William Craft called it when he and his wife, Ellen, both slaves, walked out of their plantation cabin and down to the railway station. Ellen was disguised as a white man. William would travel as her servant. But they had 1,000 miles to cover. And once they were in the North, there were fugitive slave hunters to worry about and a life to make for themselves.
