About

“If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all her one lone, all these together ought to be able to turn it right side up again.” This eloquent biography records the life of Sojourner Truth, an escaped slave, who evolved into one of the most influential crusaders for women’s rights, abolition, and racial equality in the 19th century.
