The Disappearing Man
by Doug Peterson
In 1849, Henry Brown mailed himself to freedom.
With the help of two friends, this Virginia slave was sealed inside a wooden box and shipped from Richmond to Philadelphia, a harrowing 27-hour ordeal at the mercy of cargo handlers and rogues of all sorts. The Disappearing Man is based on a true story—one of the most incredible escape attempts in the history of the Underground Railroad. It was the ultimate disappearing act.
The Disappearing Man is available from Amazon US, Amazon UK, Barnes and Noble and Apple iTunes.
