"Harriet the Moses of Her People" from Sarah Hopkins Bradford. American writer and historian (1818 - 1912).
This is the first biography of Harriet Tubman and was written by Sarah Hopkins Bradford, a friend of Harriet Tubman and her family.

In any quest to validate the deeds, heroic acts and persona of Harriet Tubman, this short biography will carry the utmost weight, as it is the earliest documented collection of stories and letters validating Ms. Tubman's life before and after Emancipation.

We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. ...
