Harriet Tubman: A Passion for Freedom

By David Abraham

Harriet Tubman's name is synonymous with freedom, courage, and women's rights. Born a slave in Maryland, she escaped bondage and later led scores of slaves to freedom along the Underground Railroad, a clandestine trail of hope and danger. During the Civil War Harriet Tubman served as a Union spy, risking her life for the armies of liberation. In later years she became an icon for former slaves and all Americans who looked to her leadership and grace as post-Civil War America came to grips with the aftermath of the conflagration that took more lives than any conflict this nation has endured. In his fictionalized retelling of her story, David Abraham considers Harriet Tubman the woman, bringing empathy and humanity to a historic figure.
