Go Free or Die by Jeri Ferris
For the first twenty-eight years of her life. Harriet Tubman lived as a slave on a southern plantation. Finally, with the help of a Quaker woman, she was able to escape to Philadelphia by way of the Underground Railroad. After her escape, Harriet began her quest to help free other slaves. Over a ten-year period she led more than three hundred people through the Underground Railroad. In Go Free or Die, young readers will learn about this courageous woman who refused to be a slave and who fought for freedom for everyone.
Jeri Chase Ferris is the author of eleven award-winning children's and young adult biographies. She specializes on biographies of women and minorities, people who have accomplished great things but have been forgotten by history. Jeri argues that we all want to be treated equally. Many of the folks I write about have been unfairly handled. My novels help to clear the air.
She currently resides in California. www.jerichaseferris.com is her website.
