The Quest for Freedom(NaN)
She was 29 years old, and a slave. She'd never been to school and could not read or write. She had been beaten, abused, and humiliated.

One spring evening in 1849, she boldly entered into a world she had never seen, in search of a place she'd never been, hoping to find something she'd never known: freedom. Her name was Harriet Tubman and her nickname was Moses.
