Published in 1869, Sarah H. Bradford’s Scenes in the Life of Harriet Tubman is one of the earliest biographical accounts of the extraordinary freedom-seeker and Underground Railroad conductor. Drawn largely from Tubman’s own dictated recollections, the book describes her escape from slavery in Maryland, her repeated missions to guide others to freedom, and her service as a spy and scout for the Union Army during the Civil War.
This short but powerful work preserves Tubman’s voice and stands as a foundational document in African American biography. Download the free EPUB and read the story of one of America’s most courageous figures.
