Overground Railroad

By Lesa Cline-Ransome

Climbing aboard the New York bound silver Mentear train, Ruth Ellen embarks upon a journey towards a new life up North- one she can’t begin to imagine. Stop by stop, the perceptive young narrator tells her journey in poems, leaving behind the cotton fields and distant Blue Ridge mountains.
