Journey Toward Freedom
The Story Of Sojourner Truth
BY JACQUELINE BERNARD
Brief Description:
First published in 1967 and based on extensive primary research, this is an important book, as compassionately told as it is engrossing to read. Sojourner Truth was born a slave in 1797, gained her freedom some 30 years later, and at the age of 46 began a new life, traveling the country to preach about God and crusade against slavery. Known for her wit, her songs, and her great common sense, she electrified audiences as she championed women's rights, prison reform, and better working conditions.
