The Narrative of Sojourner Truth
ByPublisher Description
Truth spoke about abolition, women's rights, prison reform, and preached to the Legislature against capital punishment. Not everyone welcomed her preaching and lectures, but she had many friends and staunch support among many influential people at the time, including Amy Post, Parker Pillsbury, Frances Gage, Wendell Phillips, William Lloyd Garrison, Laura Smith Haviland, Lucretia Mott, and Susan B. Anthony. Truth started dictating her memoirs to her friend Olive Gilbert, and in 1850 William Lloyd Garrison privately published her book, The Narrative of Sojourner Truth: A Northern Slave.

“<strong>Enlightening History </strong>
For a book published in 1850, I find so many disturbing echoes of her life still echo into our present social attitudes of today. It seems that though she was uneducated and unable to read or write, she was a great study of human nature and heart. This writing does not include the last thirty-plus years of her life and I am anxious to learn of it.”
