Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the words of an African American conductor on the Underground Railroad, His Promised Land is the unusual and stirring account of how the war against slavery was foughtand sometimes won. John P. Parker (18271900) told this dramatic story to a newspaperman after the Civil War. He recounts his years of slavery, his harrowing runaway attempt, and how he finally bought his freedom. Eventually moving to Ripley, Ohio, a stronghold of the abolitionist movement, Parker became an integral part of the Underground Railroad, helping fugitive slaves cross the Ohio River from Kentucky and go north to freedom. Parker risked his lifehiding in coffins, diving off a steamboat into the river with bounty hunters on his trailand his own freedom to fight for the freedom of his people. John P. Parker is one of the few African Americans whose battle against slavery we can now turn to in his own words. He recounts dramatically how he helped fugitive slaves to cross the Ohio River from Kentucky and go north to freedom. He risked his life-hiding in coffins, diving off a steamboat with bounty hunters on his trail-and his freedom to fight for the freedom of his people.
