BALTIMORE -- A new edition of a map-guide to 41 places and programs related to the Underground Railroad in Maryland is now available in the state's 11 welcome centers.
The guide describes places where you can learn about the personal stories of slaves who tried to outrun slave catchers and civil authorities in the years before the Civil War.
All of the sites in the Maryland guide are associated with the National Park Services National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom Program, a program mandated by Congress in 1998.
Copies of the guide are also available through the Maryland Office of Tourism Web site, www.visitmaryland.org, or by calling 800-719-5900.
