On the Edge of Freedom

- The Fugitive Slave Issue in South Central Pennsylvania, 1820-1870

Bag om On the Edge of Freedom

Describes the development of antislavery activism in border south central Pennsylvania.

This approach paid dividends before the Civil War, but did not provide a solid basis for equal opportunity afterwards.
