Description

An important work of African American history in the style of Twelve Years a Slave, this compelling 1860 narrative recounts a remarkable escape from the shackles of slavery. Light-skinned Ellen Craft disguised herself as a man; her husband, William, posed as her servant; and the pair successfully traveled from Georgia to Boston. Their story offers fascinating insights into issues of race, gender, and class in 19th-century America.

Author Biography:

William Craft (1825-1900) and his wife, Ellen (c.1825-91), married in slavery and fled from Georgia to Philadelphia. They settled in Boston, where they became involved in abolitionist activities. Later, the couple sought greater safety in England, where they raised their five children.
