Publisher's Synopsis
Harriet Tubman has gained iconic status as a true American heroine worthy of celebration today, not only in the United States, but also around the world. But many myths and legends have obscured this remarkable woman of courage and faith. Therefore, to truly understand the "Black Moses," it is now time to take a closer look at the real person, and this can best be achieved by exploring her religious life and experiences in Maryland, before she escaped slavery. This book is the first-ever volume dedicated to what was most important to Harriet Tubman, a freedom fighter and lover of liberty, and it motivated her to achieve herculean tasks that continue to be celebrated today, a powerful and intense religious faith.
