Description
Running A Thousand Miles For Freedom is a memoir written by William Craft, a former slave who escaped from slavery in the United States in the mid-19th century. The book tells the story of William and his wife, Ellen, who also escaped from slavery, and their journey to freedom. The couple, who were both light-skinned, devised a plan in which Ellen would pose as a white man and William as her slave, allowing them to travel freely without arousing suspicion. The book details their harrowing journey, including their travels by train, steamboat, and foot, as well as their encounters with slave catchers and other dangers along the way. Running A Thousand Miles For Freedom is a powerful and inspiring account of two people who risked everything to gain their freedom and start a new life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
