Excellent historical novel set before the Civil War. It is the story of Ben Hanbry and his love Kate Winter. It is a touching story of the man who wrote the song Darling Nelly Gray, which was considered "the Uncle Tom's Cabin of song." Also, featured is a very realistic portrayal of the Underground Railroad. I thought this was a very interesting and satisfying story. Highly recommended!
