Jump Ship to Freedom Paperback - 1987
by James Lincoln Collier; Contribution by Christopher Collier
The second book in the Arabus family saga finds young Daniel trying to retrieve the notes that ensure his and his mother's freedom, until he is forced aboard a boat and headed for certain slavery in the West Indies.
First line
I crept up the cellar stairs in the dark, with the bundle of hay in my arms, going as quiet as I could.
From the jacket flap
Young Daniel Arabus and his mother are slaves in the house of Captain Ivers of Stratford, Connecticut. By law they should be free, since Daniel's father fought in the Revolutionary army and earned enough in soldiers' notes to buy his family's freedom.
But now Daniel's father is dead, and Mrs. Ivers has taken the notes from his mother. When Daniel bravely steals the notes back, a furious Captain Ivers forces him aboard a ship bound for the West Indies--and certain slavery. Even if Daniel can manage to jump ship in New York, will he be able to travel the long and dangerous road to freedom?
