Condición: VERY GOOD. Later printing. The third book in the Woodville series. The young fugitives of the title are three young slaves who have fled a plantation in Louisiana. In his preface, the author states that this was not written in the anti-slavery cause, but he would be thankful if it kindled "any new emotions of sympathy for the oppressed and enslaved."

Illustrated with a frontispiece and two glossy internal plates. 276 pp plus 10 pp publisher's ads. Very good in illustrated green boards (previous owner's name dated 1906).…
