5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Historical Source!!!,
By Fred Chapman (Flint, MI USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Black Neighbours (Paperback)
This book gives an interesting and excellent account of not only the history of Cass County, MI, but also gives an insightful look at the beginings and funtions of the Underground Railroad, in which Cass County played a major role. It is estimated that 1 out of every 4 fugitive slaves passed through Cass County. Founded by Quakers, scorned in the south for their beliefs in the equality of men and opposition to slavery, Cass County became a rare, thriving, integrated community in the 1800's.
