Harriet Tubman by Jean Humez
Jean Humez's comprehensive Harriet Tubman is both an important biographical overview based on extensive new research and a complete collection of the stories Tubman told about her life - a virtual autobiography culled by Humez from rare early publications and manuscript sources.
"The definitive scholarly work" - Nell Irvin Painter, Edwards Professor of American History at Princeton University "Presented as a chronology of her life, these materials paint a far more vivid portrait than any biographer's account." - New York Times Book Review; "An excellent resource for students as well as for the general reader." - Black Issues Book Review; "An invaluable resource for understanding the real Harriet Tubman." - Library Journal"
