Abolitionist of the Most Dangerous Kind

"Abolitionist of the Most Dangerous Kind" by Todd Mildfelt and David D. Schafer delves into the life of James Montgomery, a radical abolitionist and Union colonel known for leading Black soldiers during the Civil War. The audiobook chronicles his fierce opposition to slavery, from his role as a guerilla leader among antislavery vigilantes in "Bleeding Kansas" to his efforts in helping enslaved individuals escape through an underexplored network of underground railways. Montgomery's story reveals the significant contributions of both abolitionists and the enslaved in the fight against slavery.
