Acclaimed author James Woodson Jr. weaves a powerful, emotionally charged narrative that transports readers to the darkest corners of American history. Set against the backdrop of the antebellum South, this compelling work of historical fiction follows the harrowing journey of a young man, stolen from his family and thrust into the merciless world of slavery. The story unfolds with the abduction of IDI, a bright and resourceful young man who is cruelly torn from his family and homeland. His journey takes him to the American South, where he is subjected to the dehumanizing horrors of servitude. Driven by an unshakable determination to regain his freedom, David befriends a group of fellow slaves who share his longing for escape. As IDI and his newfound allies conspire to break free from the chains that bind them, "The Fugitive" delves deep into the complexities of their struggle. Readers will be immersed in the brutal reality of their existence, from the backbreaking labor in the cotton fields to the ever-present threat of violence. Woodson's meticulous research and vivid storytelling bring to life the challenges, sacrifices, and small triumphs of those who fought for their freedom in the face of overwhelming adversity.
