| Zusammenfassung: | "This enlightening study employs the tools of archaeology to uncover a new historical perspective on the Underground Railroad. Unlike previous histories of the Underground Railroad, which have focused on frightened fugitive slaves and their benevolent abolitionist accomplices, Cheryl LaRoche focuses instead on free African American communities, the crucial help they provided to individuals fleeing slavery, and the terrain where those flights to freedom occurred. This study foregrounds several small, rural hamlets on the treacherous southern edge of the free North in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. LaRoche demonstrates how landscape features such as waterways, iron forges, and caves played a key role in the conduct and effectiveness of the Underground Railroad. Rich in oral histories, maps, memoirs, and archaeological investigations, this examination of the "geography of resistance" tells the new powerful and inspiring story of African Americans ensuring their own liberation in the midst of oppression.

'Employing the tools of archaeology, LaRoche's study provides a
powerful new window into the Underground Railroad and significantly
enriches our understanding of it. She helps rescue some of the crucial
Underground Railroad lore that scholars have been attempting to
substantiate or refute for more than a century."
— KEITH
GRIFFLER
author of Front Line of Freedom: African Americans
and the Forging of the Underground Railroad in the Ohio Valley
In this enlightening study, Cheryl Janifer LaRoche employs the tools of archaeology to
uncover a new historical perspective on the Underground Railroad. Unlike previous his¬
tories of the Underground Railroad, which have focused on frightened fugitive slaves and
their benevolent abolitionist accomplices, LaRoche focuses instead on free African Amer¬
ican communities, the crucial help they provided to individuals fleeing slavery, and the
terrain where those flights to freedom occurred. This study foregrounds several small, rural
hamlets on the treacherous southern edge of the free North: the African American settle¬
ments of Rocky Fork and Miller Grove, Illinois; Lick Creek, Indiana; and Poke Patch, Ohio.
LaRoche demonstrates how landscape features such as waterways, iron forges, and caves
played a key role in the conduct and effectiveness of the Underground Railroad.
Exploring the religious and fraternal institutions at the heart of these free African American
communities, LaRoche demonstrates how the
AME
and Baptist churches and Prince Hall
Masons, in addition to Quakers, provided both physical and social structures that fostered
escape from slavery. Rich in oral histories, maps, memoirs, and archaeological investiga¬
tions, this examination of the "geography of resistance" tells the new, powerful, and inspir¬
ing story of African Americans ensuring their own liberation in the midst of oppression.

Ill., Kt. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index "This enlightening study employs the tools of archaeology to uncover a new historical perspective on the Underground Railroad. Unlike previous histories of the Underground Railroad, which have focused on frightened fugitive slaves and their benevolent abolitionist accomplices, Cheryl LaRoche focuses instead on free African American communities, the crucial help they provided to individuals fleeing slavery, and the terrain where those flights to freedom occurred. This study foregrounds several small, rural hamlets on the treacherous southern edge of the free North in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. LaRoche demonstrates how landscape features such as waterways, iron forges, and caves played a key role in the conduct and effectiveness of the Underground Railroad. Rich in oral histories, maps, memoirs, and archaeological investigations, this examination of the "geography of resistance" tells the new powerful and inspiring story of African Americans ensuring their own liberation in the midst of oppression.
