Escaping Toward Freedom is the fictional story of four teens who escape a human trafficking ring, each heralding from different states. Clarissa Maxwell, a key character in this thriller, is a former Navy specialist with friends in military special forces. Clarissa is vacationing in the Georgia countryside, deep in the woods, when she spots a girl hiding by her car, at the edge of her cabin. Sight of the girl trembling changes everything, strips Clarissa of the reason she'd traveled to the cabin. At once, Clarissa and the teen enter a world of intrigue, mystery, suspense and escape. Days later, more teen girls would show up. The foundation, the very core of this story, has dominated headline news and rightfully so. Escaping Toward Freedom is a powerful story that should be read and shared. Each reader can do something to make what happens in this story a past, memory, no longer a present-day trauma haunting millions of teens and adults and their grieving families. It's time to escape! It's time to truly go free!

A deeply personal, heart-wrenching memoir of the author's upbringing in Communist China during the Cultural Revolution and his tenacious flight to freedom against all odds When Kent Wong was a young boy, his father, a patriotic Chinese official in the customs office in Hong Kong, joined an insurrection at work and returned with the family to the newly established People's Republic of China. Hailed as heroes, they settled in the southern city of Canton. But Mao's China was dangerous and unstable, with landlords executed en masse and millions dying of starvation during the Great Leap Forward. Kent Wong's Swimming to Freedom is a memoir of a childhood amid revolutionary times, where boyish adventures and school days mixed with dire poverty and political persecution, and a moving story of an inextinguishable yearning to be free. Mao's Hundred Flower Campaign ensnared Kent's father. A decade later the Cultural Revolution closed schools, plunged the country into chaos, and scattered Kent and his sisters to disparate villages where they struggled to eke out a bare existence. Kent began to realize that with higher education closed to him (as the son of a "capitalist rightist"), he had no future in China. So, when he hooked up with a dissident underground and heard about fellow countrymen braving extraordinary hardship to reach freedom by swimming across miles of open water to Hong Kong, he decided to risk his life for a better future. Swimming to Freedom is an extraordinary account of a largely unknown chapter in history, when an estimated half million "Freedom Swimmers" risked everything to escape hardship and oppression. It is a gripping memoir and a moving testament to the human spirit.

Published to coincide with Black History Month and the opening of the new Underground Railroad Museum in Cincinnati, Fleeing for Freedom includes selected narratives from the two most important contemporary chroniclers of the Underground Railroad, Levi Coffin and William Still. Here are firsthand descriptions of the experiences of escaped slaves making their way to freedom in the North and in Canada in the years before the Civil War. George and Willene Hendrick have chosen a broad range of stories to reflect the strategies, tactics, heartbreak, and dangers—for both the slaves and the "conductors"—of the secret network. In their Introduction, they provide basic information about the scope and workings of the Underground Railroad and its impact on slaves, slaveholders, and the Northern abolitionist societies that were so heavily involved. Fleeing for Freedom offers gripping personal accounts of one of the great collaborations between whites and blacks in American history. With 15 black-and-white engravings and line drawings.
