GATEWAY TO FREEDOM
The Hidden History of the Underground Railroad
Eric Foner
"Foner's gripping account of slaves' struggles to free
themselves reveals the immense risks they, and their
sympathizers, took to escape bondage."
— Publishers Weekly
In 1835, the New York Vigilance Committee was organized
by free blacks working with white
abolitionists to protect blacks from
kidnappers and slave catchers. Soon
such committees proliferated in the
North, and began a collaboration
known as the underground railroad.
Building on fresh evidence, Eric
Foner elevates the underground
railroad from folklore to history.

THE STORY OF FESTER CAT
Paul Magrs
"A little gem of a book." — Booklist
When he first ambled into Paul Magrs's yard — skinny,
covered in flea bites, and missing all but one and a half
teeth — Fester knew he'd found his family. Paul and his
partner, Jeremy, thought it was the ragged black-and-
white stray, tired from a rough life on the streets, who was
in desperate need of support. But
clever Fester knew better. This is the
true story of an extraordinary little
cat whose gentle charm and trusting
soul turned two young men into
a family.
