{"product_id":"narrative-of-sojourner-truth-9781607960256","title":"Narrative of Sojourner Truth","description":"Truth's narrative is a powerful rendering of bondage, denial, and loss transcended by genius, family, and a spiritual base. It juxtaposes spirituality with moral turpitude. Truth was a freethinker who lived within a family of wretched circumstances in New York's Ulster County; she was a wife whose runaway husband had been beated into submission; a mother who reclaimed her only son from a brutal Georgia slaver; a person of principles who was duped by slavers and false prophets; and, finally, at 46, an orator, abolitionist, and member of the Northampton utopian community. As a companion to Truth's narrative, Washington presents a cogent, well-crafted introduction full of historical information that sketches a framework for understanding slavery as it was practiced in the Northeast. This slender book belongs in all literature and history collections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e www.bnpublishing.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781607960256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Truth Sojourner Truth, Sojourner Truth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36661755936924,"sku":"9781607960256","price":7.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_af88853c-b169-42fd-a126-bba4b1b3fbaa.jpg?v=1603900190","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/narrative-of-sojourner-truth-9781607960256","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
