This compelling biography by Hertha Ernestine Pauli shines a light on the extraordinary life of Sojourner Truth, one of the most influential and iconic figures in American history. Born into slavery as Isabella Baumfree, she escaped to freedom in 1826 and became a powerful voice for abolition and women’s rights. Pauli’s meticulous research and vivid storytelling bring Truth’s remarkable journey to life, from her early years of enslavement to her pivotal role in the abolitionist and suffragist movements. This volume offers a rare glimpse into the resilience, courage, and unwavering determination that defined Truth’s life and legacy. Collectors and readers alike will appreciate Pauli’s nuanced portrayal of this trailblazing woman, whose famous “Ain’t I a Woman?” speech at the 1851 Women’s Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio, remains a rallying cry for equality and human dignity.
