The journey to freedom and equality for African-Americans has passed through many places in the United States. This is a story about Harpers Ferry's role in that journey, which started with John Brown's "Trail" from the Mid-West states in 1859. While there are physical places and people involved, it is a spiritual, cultural, and educational journey "on Freedom's Trail". Illustrated by Nena Stowell the daughter of NPS Historian Dr. Albert Manucy (St. Augustine Spanish-American History), this is an artistic African-American history; with factual text by Jefferson County historian Doug Perks. Both Doug and Nena created this collaboration with their shared dedication to the West Virginia public educational system. This history appeals to young artists and historians of all ages and cultures. Walton Stowell II edited the format and text, with substantial changes and additions to the original proof.
