Publisher's summary

One of the most important slave narratives of all time, The Narrative of Sojourner Truth tells the story of an African-American woman who struggled against the bondages of slavery in the mid-1800s. With the strength of her spirituality, she overcame obstacles to become a leading abolitionist and champion of women's rights.

Published originally in 1850 and later updated, The Narrative of Sojourner Truth was dictated by Sojourner Truth to her neighbor, Olive Gilbert.

Amazing first person account

First off, I want to say from an oral history perspective, this is an amazing account of life as a slave. Some of those stories are very hard. But the second thing I want to say is that this is about a woman of character and how she developed that character and a deep faith in God in the midst of terrible hardships. Amazing book.
