520 3  The culmination of years of research in dozens of archives
       and libraries, this fascinating encyclopedia provides an 
       unprecedented look at the network known as the Underground
       Railroad--that mysterious "system" of individuals and 
       organizations that helped slaves escape the American South
       to freedom during the years before the Civil War. In 
       operation as early as the 1700s and reaching its peak with
       the abolitionist movement of the antebellum period, the 
       Underground Railroad saved countless lives and helped 
       alter the course of American history. 
520 8  This is the most complete reference on the Underground 
       Railroad ever published. It includes full coverage of the 
       Railroad in both the United States and Canada, which was 
       the ultimate destination of many of the escaping slaves. 
       The Underground Railroad: An Encyclopedia of People, 
       Places, and Operations explores the people, places, 
       writings, laws, and organizations that made this network 
       possible. Entries detail the families and personalities 
       involved in the operation, and sidebars extract primary 
       source materials for longer entries. This encyclopedia 
       features extensive supporting materials, including maps 
       with actual Underground Railroad escape routes, photos, a 
       chronology, genealogies of those involved in the operation,
       a listing of Underground Railroad operatives by state or 
       Canadian province, a "passenger" list of escaping slaves, 
       and primary and secondary source bibliographies.
