The novel explores the struggles and hardships that the sisters face as they navigate their way through life as slaves.The story begins with the sisters being sold to different slave owners, and the challenges they face as they try to stay connected. Clara is sold to a wealthy plantation owner, while Susan is sold to a poor farmer. Despite their different circumstances, the sisters remain connected through their love for each other and their determination to gain their freedom.As the story progresses, the sisters face numerous challenges and setbacks, including abuse, mistreatment, and the threat of being separated forever. However, they remain resilient and determined to overcome these obstacles and achieve their freedom.Throughout the book, Harper explores themes of slavery, racism, and the human spirit's resilience. She also highlights the importance of family, love, and community in overcoming adversity.Overall, Trial and Triumph is a powerful and inspiring novel that offers a unique perspective on the experiences of slaves in 19th century America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in African American history and the fight for freedom and equality.It has been quite a length of time since we left Mr. Thomas and his young friend facing an uncertain future. Since then he has not only been successful in building up a good business for himself, but in opening the gates to others. His success has not inflated him with pride. Neither has he become self-abashed and isolated from others less fortunate, who need his counsel and sympathy. Generous and noble in his character, he was conservative enough to cling to the good of the past and radical enough to give hospitality to every new idea which was calculated to benefit and make life noble and better.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
