The Many Lives of Harriet Tubman
Briefly

Harriet Tubman's life was often overlooked but has been subject to numerous biographies, with historians constantly revising and exploring her legacy beyond traditional narratives.
Now the award-winning historian Tiya Miles has made Tubman the subject of her ninth book, Night Flyer: Harriet Tubman and the Faith Dreams of a Free People, contributing to the ongoing exploration of Tubman's life and times beyond mere traditional narratives.
Her new book fits within a larger turn among historians trying to move biography beyond the traditional cradle-to-grave narrative, focusing on exploring the depth and complexities of Tubman's legacy.
