Editorial Reviews: Patricia L. Lawrence joins the Circle of Hope tour in Rochester, New York, to find out more about the lives of men and women who dedicated their lives to ending slavery. The Underground Railroad was an important network of safe houses and places along the route slaves took to freedom, and Rochester was one of the last stops before reaching Canada. Lawrence begins her tour at Frederick Douglass' statue and listeners will be amazed at Douglass' fascinating and courageous journey from former slave to noted writer and abolitionist. Lawrence also stops at the houses of Susan B. Anthony and Lincoln Secretary of State William H. Seward, who were both great contributors to the abolitionist cause.
