This book tells the story of Sojourner Truth, who spent about 30 years of her life as a slave. This book is broken down into two parts with the first part detailing her life as a slave and a newly freed woman while the second part shows the impact she made as an abolitionist and an activist. Sojourner’s story is a long and painful one, but her faith and willpower helped her through. Definitely a great book that gives insight on the life of one who overcame hardships and injustice. 178 pgs, pb. ~ Kathryn

Description
Publisher's Description of Sojourner Truth, Ain't I a Woman?
n 1797, a slave named Isabella was born in New York. After being freed in 1827, she chose the name by which she has been remembered long after her death - Sojourner Truth. Here is a stirring biography of this heroic African-American preacher, abolitionist, and activist for the rights of both blacks and women. Although she couldn't read, Sojourner Truth could quote the Bible word for word, and was a powerful speaker. An imposing six feet tall, with a profound faith in God's love and a deep rich voice, she stirred audiences around the country until her death in 1883.
