I am trying to find a book specifically about the underground railroad
relating to the historical sites involved in the underground railroad
in Washington DC. I DO NOT want a book about the underground railroad
in "general" it would be useless to me.  Can anyone help me out.

Hello.

Yes, it is possible to obtain a copy of Hilary Russell's "Final

I called the Historical Society of Washington D.C. at 1-202-383-1850.
The person with whom I spoke indicated that they could copy the report
for you at 20 cents per page + tax & shipping.

You may send a written request for a copy of the publication to:
