Description & Specifications

A fresh portrait of this iconic American—and the first to include a member of the Tubman family since Harriet herself was interviewed in 1886. Despite Harriet Tubman's achievements and the countless books written about her, many gaps, inaccuracies, and misunderstandings about her legendary life remain. One of these misconceptions is that Sarah H. (Hopkins) Bradford is responsible for the lack of information in her book Harriet Tubman: The Moses of Her People and that the latter's writing ended too soon. However, according to the Tubman family, Harriet's physical disability, resulting from a head injury she sustained as a child, left her unable to complete the interviewing process with Sarah and to properly develop the work. Harriet Tubman: Military Scout and Tenacious Visionary colors in these omissions and many others. As recognition and tributes to Tubman's remarkable contributions to American history and civil liberties continue to grow, the time is ripe for a new biography featuring her family, who have been guardians and stewards of her legacy for many generations. Who was this remarkable woman? We may know the basic outlines of her story, but Jean Marie Wiesen's in-depth research and Rita Daniels' rich family memory combine to form a more complex and vibrant portrait of a historical figure we thought we knew. Revealing Harriet's ancestral roots in Ghana and exploring her time on the Underground Railroad, as a military scout, feminist, and more, Harriet Tubman offers an inspired and enlightening narrative of a central figure in our history.
