Review # 1 was written on 2020-04-05 00:00:00 Paul Walsh Fascinating and very useful while studying full time. I'm not sure what I'd make of it now, 16 years on.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-05-26 00:00:00 Rene Maradiaga Butch Lee critiques everything I learned in high school about Harriet Tubman and uncovers Harriet Tubman's past based on context and feminist analysis. I finished this book with the impression that Tubman really was an Amazon, a term chosen by Lee. Also, that Tubman was one of many rebels. Although Tubman may have led an atypical life - taking on men's roles as a nurse and as a leader of male troops carrying arms; later living unmarried - she was certainly not unique.
