Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0590436287, Mass Market Paperback)

Born into slavery, young Harriet Tubman knew only hard work and hunger. Escape seemed impossible — certainly dangerous. Yet Harriet did escape North, by the secret route called the Underground Railroad. Harriet didn't forget her people. Again and again she risked her life to lead them on the same secret, dangerous journey.
