Eliza, a young slave, follows Harriet Tubman's call to freedom. On the journey North, she brings with her a story quilt crafted by her mother, raising the spirits of her fellow travelers by relating the quilt's tales of strength, courage, and wisdom. Nolen gracefully conveys the desperation, determination, and steadfastness of fugitive slaves traveling along the Underground Railroad. Websites. Bib.
