I need a few books for research on the Underground Railroad. But I don’t need a book just talking aobut what the Underground Railroad is, what it includes, etc. I’m more looking for books that shows relationship of the Underground Railroad to the Civil War, secessionship, etc. Just a lot of info that shows effects of the Underground Railroad…are there any good and informative books you know? :]
