If you toured Mammoth Cave in Kentucky around the year 1838, you would have
been led by candlelight through miles of dark winding tunnels, to the edge of
a terrifying bottomless pit, and curiously, a church built underground. Your
tour guide would have been seventeen-year-old Stephen Bishop, an African
American, and a slave. Bishop had a job he found truly thrilling--exploring
and recording every inch of his exciting adventures at Mammoth Cave and
escorting tourists to show them his discoveries. Luckily, by being so
successful in this job, Bishop was able to avoid the grueling labor most
slaves endured.
Full of adventure and fascinating details about cave exploration Journey to
the Bottomless Pit is the first book for young readers ever written about
Stephen Bishop. Through Stephen Bishop's story, author Betsy Mitchell takes
readers on a tour unlike anything they've experienced.
