About this book

This early biography tells the astonishing true story of Harriet Tubman—escaped slave, conductor on the Underground Railroad, Civil War spy and nurse—who risked her life again and again to lead others out of bondage. Based on interviews with Tubman herself, Bradford's account preserves the words and deeds of one of the greatest heroes in American history, whose courage earned her the name 'Moses.' Direct and moving, it is a vital record of resistance to slavery and of extraordinary personal bravery. A foundational document of African American history, Scenes in the Life of Harriet Tubman keeps alive the memory of a woman whose fearless devotion to freedom continues to inspire.
