This historical fiction about a young abolitionist begins in Washington, DC, where James Woodman, a free black man, business owner, and member of the District militia, seeks to secure a home, a family, and an honest living. But when the British burn Washington in 1814, James finds himself fighting to save the Constitution from destruction-even though he knows the founding document's promises don't protect him. Years later, James and his family are still fighting to remain free people and helping others do the same while brutal enslavement rages all around them. From the slave hunters' violence to the regular man's divisive destruction, James must face down each trial to remain on his ancestral land.Painstakingly researched, Journey is a raw and gripping fictionalized account of the Underground Railroad and a powerful chronicle of one young man's journey in 1800's America.
