\"Frontline\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Frontline of Freedom<\/a> by Keith P Griffler<\/a><\/p>\n

My rating: 5 of 5 stars<\/a><\/p>\n

I read Frontline of Freedom<\/em> in researching the first book in my new series “Quaker Brides.” Book one takes place in and near 1820 Cincinnati, Ohio, where my heroine Honor Cathwell joins the Female Antislavery Society.<\/p>\n

Frontline of Freedom i<\/em>s an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history of the struggle for abolition, the beginnings of the Underground Railroad (which began in Ohio) and the African-American and the white men and women who defied unjust laws to end slavery.<\/p>\n

As I read this, I was reminded of the many times, I’ve “lifted” actual people and events from history because truth is often more exciting than anything I could think up!<\/p>\n
