Freedom Ship

by Doreen Rappaport

During the American Civil War, young Samuel and his father work on a Confederate steamship out of Charleston, South Carolina. Every day when they look beyond the harbour they can see the Atlantic Ocean. Union ships rest there - as does their freedom. If only they could get there somehow... Then, on May 13, 1862, Samuel and his family risk everything to do just that.
