Preview Oh, freedom! (Italian Edition)

Description:

Tommy, 11 anni, è uno schiavo, insieme alla sua famiglia, in una piantagione di cotone, ma sogna di poter essere un giorno libero. Dopo aver conosciuto Peg Leg Joe, uno strano soggetto che lo introduce alla musica degli spirituals e agli ideali di libertà, fugge seguendo Peg Leg Joe e il suo banjo, lungo quella che viene chiamata la Underground Railroad. Lungo la strada che porta alla libertà, tra pericoli e avventure, il piccolo Tommy imparerà a suonare il banjo e a cantare gli spirituals. Diventerà a sua volta una guida e dedicherà la vita a portare in salvo gli schiavi del Sud, lungo il percorso segreto della Underground Railroad.
