Description
""Running A Thousand Miles For Freedom"" is a memoir written by William and Ellen Craft, a married couple who escaped slavery in Georgia in 1848. The book details their harrowing journey to freedom, which involved Ellen disguising herself as a white man and William posing as her slave. The couple traveled by train, steamship, and carriage, covering over a thousand miles before finally reaching Philadelphia. Along the way, they encountered numerous obstacles and dangers, including suspicious slave catchers and the constant fear of being discovered. The book provides a vivid account of the horrors of slavery and the lengths that people would go to escape it. It also sheds light on the resilience and ingenuity of those who fought against the institution of slavery. Overall, ""Running A Thousand Miles For Freedom"" is a powerful and inspiring story of courage and determination in the face of oppression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
