The Narrative of Sojourner Truth

By

Description

In 1826 Sojourner Truth fled from bondage to become a powerful figure in the progressive movement reshaping American society. Her narrative, first published in 1850, provides a window onto the world of Northern slavery. Truth recounts her life as a slave in rural New York, her separation from her family, her religious conversion, and her life as a traveling preacher during the 1840s.
