1. What Do The Reviewers Say?

"This well-researched study presents a great deal of information...through its user-friendly, question-and-answer format. With its specific coverage of the Underground Railroad in the Midwest, this book will be a welcome addition to library collections in the region and an invaluable resource for students researching the Underground Railroad in Illinois." Booklist

"Glennette Tilley Turner in her outstanding book, The Underground Railroad in Illinois, has pulled the stopper from the bottle which has kept this information hidden away far too many years. It is quite evident that Mrs.Turner has worked tirelessly and devoted many years to researching this hitherto, little known, but pivotal chapter not only in Illinois history but in national history." Quincy Herald Whig

"...accessible to kids as well as adults and includes a chapter, 'Take a Walk in their Footsteps,' that offers a wide range of activities children can do to better understand the experiences and accomplishments of conductors and passengers on the Underground Railroad." Chicago Parent

"While Turner honors Harriet Tubman's life-threatening expeditions, she believes that the Illinois residents who assisted in these escapes to freedom also deserve recognition‡Many routes led to Chicago, where black and white people worked together as abolitionists." Citizen Newspaper
