Sinossi

In "The Extraordinary Life Story of Harriet Tubman," Sarah H. Bradford meticulously chronicles the remarkable journey of one of America'Äôs most pivotal abolitionists. This biographical narrative is not merely a recounting of Tubman's life; it delves into the tumultuous era of slavery and the burgeoning abolitionist movement, rendered through Bradford's evocative and accessible prose. The text is steeped in historical context, offering both vivid storytelling and poignant insights into Tubman's indomitable spirit, her daring escapes, and her relentless commitment to liberty and social justice. Sarah H. Bradford, a prominent 19th-century writer and social activist, was inspired by her own experiences in a nation grappling with the morality of slavery. A contemporary of Tubman, Bradford'Äôs close association with abolitionist circles and her extensive research into Tubman'Äôs life positioned her uniquely to bring forth this compelling account. Her personal dedication to social reform is reflected in her empathetic portrayal of Tubman, highlighting not just her achievements but the challenges she faced as a Black woman in a prejudiced society. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in American history, social justice, or the life of extraordinary individuals. Bradford'Äôs work not only serves as a biography but as a source of inspiration, encouraging readers to reflect on the themes of courage, resilience, and the fight against injustice that remain relevant today.

    THE FINAL VOLUME OF KAT WARD'S SENSATIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY! 
    When Kat Ward put down her pen after finishing the seventh book in her “KERI” series, she considered her mission complete. 
    Nearly twenty years had passed since her therapist originally recommend writing as a means of healing her childhood wounds. And after taking readers on a stomach-twisting journey through her hellish formative years, she was ready to look in the mirror again. 
    However, despite the fact that the series had reached a natural conclusion, reader demand remained insatiable. The epic autobiography that she had never intended to write had reached a worldwide audience, who now wanted to follow Kat’s journey on through adulthood. 
    Humbled by the interest, Kat duly obliged. At this point, she may no longer be the abused child herself, but her journey through hell was still a long way from over… 
    DISCLAIMER: This is a true story of child abuse. Reader discretion is advised.
