Gaillard, Frye, 1946-
Go south to freedom : based on a true story / Frye Gaillard ; illustrated by Anne Kent Rush. - 70 pages : illustrations ; 18 cm
As Gaillard's narrative makes clear, the Seminole Wars of the 1830s, in which Indians fought side by side with former slaves, represents the largest slave uprising in American history. Gaillard also puts a human face on the story of free blacks before the Civil War and the lives they painfully built for themselves in Mobile. Hauntingly illustrated by Alabama artist Anne Kent Rush, Go South to Freedom is a gripping story for readers of any age.
