Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites

Join us for our first book club meeting and travel back in time to join Sarah Caldwell as she is forced to leave behind her sister Rachel and her North Carolina life to journey northwest to the frontier state of Indiana. Explore the challenges she faces as she experiences firsthand the impact of freedom and slavery.  

Ahead of the program, participants will receive a copy of “By Freedom’s Light,” a historical fiction novel written by Elizabeth O’Maley. During the program the group will discuss their thoughts and reactions to Sarah’s experience. Afterwards, participants are invited to take a guided tour of the Levi and Catharine Coffin House. Refreshments will be provided.
