The Last Runaway - Tracy Cheva

The Last Runaway - Tracy Chevalier

Our first selection was:  "The Last Runaway" by Tracy Chevalier.  Chevalier sprang to fame with "The Girl with the Peal Earring", and has written 10 other best-sellers since that first novel.  "Tracy Chevalier makes her first fictional foray into the American past in The Last Runaway, bringing to life the Underground Railroad and illuminating the principles, passions and realities that fueled this extraordinary freedom movement" (Source: Goodreads.com).
