Escape To The Maroons
In 1791, an escaped slave, raised and living as white, is discovered and forced to flee into the Great Dismal Swamp. Barely escaping a bounty hunter, a Maroon community of self-liberated slaves rescues him. Over time, Nathanial comes to grow into his true identity while fighting to overcome the suspicions of his new community. Because of his pale skin, he becomes a conductor on the underground railroad, slipping runners onto ships going north.
On one of his missions, fate intervenes and places Nathanial's community at risk. This little-known chapter in American history tells how enslaved people gave their all to live free, while creating a community and economy in one of the world's most unforgiving environments.
