DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Memoir of Rev. Charles T. Torrey: Who Died in the Penitentiary of Maryland, Where He Was Confined, for Showing Mercy to the Poor Dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return, is a decree against which mortals struggle in vain. Not only does the body return to the earth, but the actions and words perish with it. The ancients lifted the marble from its bed, and bade the chisel shape it into the form of a living man - but it was only a likeness, imperfect and unable to perpetuate the man that once lived and walked and acted. Types and the press have furnished us with a cheaper mode of preserving the words and actions of men. Yet how small is the sum of them. Far more is lost than can be preserved. Still we love to survey the skeletons of the extinct races of animals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA riveting account of the extraordinary abolitionist, liberator, and writer Thomas Smallwood, who bought his own freedom, led hundreds out of slavery, and named the underground railroad, from Pulitzer Prize-winning author and journalist, Scott Shane. Flee North tells the story for the first time of an American hero all but lost to history. Born into slavery, by the 1840s Thomas Smallwood was free, self-educated, and working as a shoemaker a short walk from the U.S. Capitol. He recruited a young white activist, Charles Torrey, and together they began to organize mass escapes from Washington, Baltimore, and surrounding counties to freedom in the north. They were racing against an implacable enemy: men like Hope Slatter, the region’s leading slave trader, part of a lucrative industry that would tear one million enslaved people from their families and sell them to the brutal cotton and sugar plantations of the deep south. Men, women, and children in imminent danger of being sold south turned to Smallwood, who risked his own freedom to battle what he called “the most inhuman system that ever blackened the pages of history.” And he documented the escapes in satirical newspaper columns, mocking the slaveholders, the slave traders and the police who worked for them. At a time when Americans are rediscovering a tragic and cruel history and struggling anew with the legacy of white supremacy, this Flee North -- the first to tell the extraordinary story of Smallwood -- offers complicated heroes, genuine villains, and a powerful narrative set in cities still plagued by shocking racial inequity today.
