Oliver had been held prisoner by Frederick, his brother, for a year. Escape meant hurting an innocent, a beautiful woman who he could not forget. He would not stop searching the colonies for her, until he found her. Debts owed would be paid. Will Sojourner and Oliver learn from the past and return to where it began to get the answers they sought? Will they be able to let go of the past to claim their future?

Despite all odds, this extraordinary woman fought for rights for both blacks and women as well as other disenfranchised populations.

“A triumph of scholarly maturity, imagination, and narrative art.”—Arnold Rampersad Sojourner Truth: formerly enslaved person and unforgettable abolitionist of the mid-nineteenth century, a figure of imposing physique, a riveting preacher and spellbinding singer who dazzled listeners with her wit and originality. Straight-talking and unsentimental, Truth became an early national symbol for strong Black women—indeed, for all strong women. In this modern classic of scholarship and sympathetic understanding, eminent historian Nell Irvin Painter goes beyond the myths, words, and photographs to uncover the life of a complex woman who was born into slavery and died a legend.
