Reseña del libro "Higbee's Landing (en Inglés)"

Higbee's Landing is set near the tip of New Jersey's peninsula, in 1850 -1875. George Elliot, a Quaker, becomes a conductor in the Underground Railroad after his serendipitous discovery, while fishing in the Delaware Bay, of an unconscious escaped slave and her dead baby drifting in a canoe toward the Atlantic Ocean.
After he buries the baby and nurses the young, light-skinned Black woman back to health, he resolves to bring her to safety. He must let go of his everyday life at Higbee's Landing and navigate through the dangers of the Fugitive Slave Law and slave hunters. Their living together in his cabin and journeying by steamboat to Canada, posing as husband and wife traveling first class, leads them into a companionship that challenges his moral rectitude and her safety.
