Stories Told in Whispers tells of a slave named Bob and his free wife. It's about love, tradition, and a moral testing of America and slavery. Bob is a preacher, a horse trainer, and a slave owned by Kenry Koger. In 1810, after marrying Marie, the couple is forced to escape their Virginia home and become runaways. Their difficult journey to Ohio leads them through the rugged mountains of Virginia and Kentucky. The ordeal tests their strength, their courage, and their faith. Along the way they discover a loosely knit organization of people who are willing to offer aid and share the risks for the cause of freedom. The coalition is made up of the many Christians who operate the shadowy Underground Railroad. This book gives you a taste of the antebellum south, as well as glimpses of the grass root forces that formed America of today. It is testimony to the many unsung heroes of the elusive Freedom Train and its ghostly riders. This story is largely based on real characters.
